Discover the rich history and culture of some of the world?s most influential historical places with these highly illustrated books, packed with informative and enlightening descriptions and information
"Art and History of Paris and Versailles" is an excellent book. At 208 pages, it gives the history of Paris (about 20 pp.) and 500 color photographs, plus 20 detailed maps. The photos are clear, detailed, beautiful, and wonder-filled. There are photos of several famous buildings and structures and of many famous pieces of art. And there is a good quantity of clear text to explain the photos and the places and to give some history of what you see. This is a very high quality book, with quality paper, fit for fine photographs. In looking through the photos, one understands why many people consider Paris to be one of the most beautiful and most important cities on Earth. This is a very impressive book. I recommend this book, very highly.
