He then hauls in the bow line for an unforgettable tour of the river itself from its source to its mouth. \u003ci\u003eThe Secret Life of the Seine\u003c\/i\u003e is a love story between man and boat and the river that they live on, a discourse on the sensual beauty of France and the art of living well.
