Living In Paris (New Edition) (Living
in... Series) by Jose Alvarez
The Next Best Thing To Being There
From the Eiffel Tower to Notre Dame, the Place de la Concorde to
Montmartre, life in Paris is charged with elegance—from private homes
and the varied architectural styles along its boulevards, to the quays of the
Seine, winding streets, cosy bistros, and intimate restaurants. Gardens,
including the Luxembourg and the Tuileries, provide an outdoor paradise in
the heart of the city. Lavishly illustrated, Living in Paris includes an
extensive guide to the capitols best addresses; it is an inspiring resource
for anyone who has strolled along the streets or dreamed of visiting the
City of Lights.
Personal Review: Living In Paris (New Edition) (Living in...
Series) by Jose Alvarez
Beautifully illustrated, this book takes you on a well organised journey
through the main districts of Paris but also informs on a differnent asthetic
level such as the essential spirit of this city as seen through its architecture
and its culture. The grande old history from the baroque and ancient

regieme onwards is elegantly sought out with a particularly interesting
chapter containing old master craftsmen at their trades and where you
might find them. This is a book that you can simiply sit down with and
devour in a glutonous way. I found this book, when sitting in one of those
well heeled, and gracious bookshops, that sell good coffee and deadly
cakes! Long story short - Amazon to the rescue and I am now enjoying the
glories of it's pages right from my armchair. For anyone who plans to visit
Paris (like myself)and/or anyone who loves things of days gone by, and
wants to do so in thier mind.... give this a look. It's cheaper than an airfare
and nearly as good.
