The Companion Guide to Paris (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781900639200)

An exuberant performance' THE TIMES

Highly praised on its first appearance, this new edition of the Companion Guide to Paris, fully revised by Anthony Glyn's widow, preserves his vivid evocation of Paris - its foundation and history, ancient churches, wide boulevards and narrow streets, architecture, and philosophy - while bringing the book up to date. Special attention is paid to the completed Grand Louvre with its Pyramid, the d'Orsay and Picasso Museums and the refurbished Centre Pompidou; the changes to the Eiffel Tower and the Panth駮n; and the restoration of the footpaths along the Seine. Informed and amusing, the book captures the changing moods of this fascinating city.
