This review is from: Paris (Timeless Places) (Hardcover)
I was looking for some nice postcards or a small book with nice pictures of Paris. I'm very glad I found this one. Beautiful, not ordinary, colorful photographs printed on good paper; some history of Paris and words of love to that City. Photography books are so expensive! But look at this, it's a bargain.
4.0 out of 5 stars
La vie Parisienne,
By Grady Harp (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Paris: Timeless Places (Hardcover)
Judith Mahoney Pasternak understands Paris: she not only is well-schooled in the history of the City of Lights, she is also acquainted with the intimate side of Paris. This is the type of book that will prepare the nascent visitor to Paris with an insider's view and will also substitute for a personal scrapbook for frequent visitors. The book is divided into two parts: L'Histoire (with sections on 'The City of Yesterday', 'A City of the Mind', 'A City of the Senses', and 'The Living City') and Les Images. The photography is atmospheric, elegant and informative, mixing the requisite grand buildings with intimate photos of the Parisians sitting along the Seine, wrapping cheeses, in the flea markets. This book truly contains the spirit of Paris and belongs in every traveller's library.
