Paris: The Biography is a City is in no way light reading. But for any lover of history, or any lover of Paris, it is an essential book. While it cannot possibly cover absolutely everything in Paris's two thousand year history, it is a valiant effort. Paris is familiar to most people via movies, television, and books (if traveling there is not an option); this text will add a greater understanding of how Paris became what it is today, and is likely to give anyone who reads it a new appreciation for the "city of light."
