A look through Paris's most beautiful and impressive monuments. Has descriptions of their historical and cultural context, architectural ideas. The reason why this book stands out among all the other Paris Architecture guides is its landscape aspect. A half of each page rips out leaving only the shape of the monument at hand. With all the pages discarded, the book forms a beautiful visualisation of the landscape of Paris. (If my description was lacking, here's what it will look like: youtube link)
