Paris in 500 Photos

This lavishly illustrated book gives an exhaustive tour of Paris. Every perspective is shown, from the boubuinistes on the quays of the Seine, with their rows of treasured books, to the stairs of Montmartre, crowded with street performers. Café sipping literati relax and people watch. Paris by night is shows the dazzling lights of the Champs Elysees. This chunky paperback gives a far more extensive coverage of Paris than most color photography books on the city.
