Walks Through Lost Paris: A Journey Into the Heart of Historic Paris
This is a wonderful book, except for one thing. It is so small that the maps are almost unreadable, and the print is not so easy to read either. I've been to Paris twice and walked through all four areas in the book before,... more info

Price: $21.45

Customer Review:
The early parts of this book, though they have not 'real' secrets, do debunk some of the older ones. But once he gets past the mid-nineteenth century (around Napoleon III) the book goes decidedly downhill with Hussey throwing in too many of his personal hobgoblins and opinions.
