I loved this book. It is a travel guide but not the usual way you think of a guide. It has three sections - romantic spots in Paris- quirky history and the spots where these fun stories took place and lastly houses it chateaux in and around Paris if you like this kind of design info and visiting amazing architecture and fabulous places with great stories this book is a fun one to have with you in Paris. Some fun ideas and great stories.
