Paris—one you definitely don’t know! The city of love, artists, and poets, the fashion capital and cradle of the Great French Revolution—Paris is ready to reveal its secret treasures to the reader. In Sерж Нонте’s book, history and everyday life intertwine tightly, major milestones of history and small events that happen every day for more than a hundred years. Does a royal wedding give way to the bloody Night of St. Bartholomew? Do musketeers rush down the street to Voisierar? Do outraged sans-culottes storm the Bastille? Paris always remains itself—never in a hurry and always following the very latest trends. The series “History of the City in Your Fingers” is dedicated to the world’s most famous cities. On the pages of each book, you’ll find the most important and unexpected facts about history, culture, and everyday life of city dwellers in different eras, as well as music that echoes through the centuries. All information is clearly systematized. Funny and interesting facts are easy to remember and share with friends.
The book will be useful both for travelers and for those who want to know their own history better.
