History can be fun!
Lots of info you never knew you'd need. It's a long tome, but well worth the time. If you're looking for a plot -- skip this; if you're looking for inspiration -- jump in!

Going to Paris?
If so, pick up this book. McCullough provides information about a surprising number of Americans who went to Paris to study, find themselves, and expand their horizons. Like them, you too will fall in love with Paris. The book is easy to read and enjoy.
