Book synopsis

Excerpt from Peeps at Great Cities: Paris Every great city in the world, from Troy downwards, has been beloved by its own inhabitants, but there is, perhaps, no city so much loved by the inhabitants of other countries as Paris. Nearly everyone who has ever visited it falls under its charm, and to all who have at one time or another lived there its name brings up happy recollections. Paris is cosmopolitan; it has drawn to itself people from all over the world, of every race and nationality, and yet it has remained in itself curiously uninfluenced. In spite of all the improvements and alterations made during the last hundred years, of the vast number of visitors who come there yearly, and of its own extensive foreign population, Paris is as characteristically French to-day as it was in the time of the Revolution. The real spirit of the city has remained unchanged, and it is largely through preserving its own character intact that it appeals so strongly to the people of other lands. Paris does not set itself to imitate other cities. It has its own manners and customs, its own ways of doing things, and you must take it as it is.
