        Curious, isn&#39;t it, how a single image &#151; a kind of mental snapshot carried home from days of travel &#151; can serve to call back in fine detail a particular day and hour and place?

        NORMANDY, France | From its place near the crest of a steep wooded ridge, this fine old farmhouse commands a view of three miles, perhaps more, down across a patchwork of tree-bordered meadows to the slate roofs of the village of Dozul&eacute;, and then to the wooded rise on the valley&#39;s far side.
