Insider's Paris
By:
Mark Cramer
Mark Cramer's new book, Insider's Paris
will be reaching bookstores some time in September, with
co-publishers in Singapore (Marshall Cavendish), USA and
London. Mark knows that the real Paris is in it's
neighborhoods and not in it's monumental icons. Paris is
really a city of distinct villages. He's highlighted
seven of the most seductive neighborhoods. The book
includes authentic stories on each neighborhood along
with tips, walking tours and stunning photos. In
essence, this is a book on sense of place and quality of
life, with each place viewed from distinct visual,
narrative and historical perspectives, so that the
reader gets a beneath-the- surface feel for the place.
Cramer has been called "a seasoned expert in urban
anatomy" by the acclaimed urbanologist Ray Oldenburg.
