There is no more beautiful drive in the world than the Grand Corniche, from Nice to Menton, which is a favorite excursion for the members of the American Red Cross who are taking their vacation on the Riviera. The Drive follows the top of the ridge of mountains which follows the seashore, winding around great cliffs with superb views, first of land and then of sea. The view shown was taken near the village of La Turbie, high over Monte Carlo, and just under the astonishing golf course built on top of the mountains
