Product Description
More than eighty of the loveliest, most tranquil, and sometimes hidden places in Paris are celebrated in this charming guidebook
Quiet Corners of Paris is a beautifully illustrated peek into eighty-one often overlooked, always beautiful, locales: hidden villas, winding lanes, little-known 19th-century passages, serene gardens, and cobblestone courtyards. Some of the places have breathtaking views, others are filled with historic and architectural details, from stone archways, garden follies, boxwood mazes, ornamental statuary, stained glass, and Renaissance fountains. Follow a stone path under a trellis of blossoms or wander through a gate to discoverÉ

• Paris Of My Dreams 14 July, 2008
A charming book that will lead you to places known to seasoned and local Parisians. Not the run of the mill tourist spots. You will become part of "secret Paris".

• Just My Style 02 September, 2008
These are the kind of experiences I seek on every vacation. But I only have a week in Paris so thank you so much for doing the "leg work" for me.

• Refreshiment In Paris 18 November, 2008
This deceptive book delighted me.... it is the perfect accompaniment to dreaming, with a coffee in a quiet corner of the garden, about your next visit to this beautiful city on the Seine.
It is small, and shows small places of rest and beauty in the bustling city, though the photographs and the text create a huge impression, which will challenge even those very familiar with Paris streets to return and to enjoy themselves in further discovery of its history.

• Nice Little Book But Pictures Aren't That Inspiring. 11 November, 2008
I was looking forward to photos that would wet my appetite; that were unique and made me long to go back to Paris. They were neither unique nor inspiring. An interesting little book but if I were in a book store and leafing through it, I would have past.
