Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Les Travailleurs de la Mer, Vol. 2
Le point de France le plus proche du rocher Douvres est le cap Bréhant. Le rocher Douvres est un peu plus loin de la côte de France que de la première ile de l'archipel normand. La distance de cet écueil à Jersey se mesure à peu près par la grande diagonale de Jersey. Si l'île de Jersev tournait sur la Corbiere comme sur un gond, la pointe Sainte - Catherine irait presque frapper les Douvres. C'est encore là un éloignement de plus de quatre lieues.
