Paris 1924
Author(s): Nicholas Whitlam
What was it like to visit Paris a century ago, in 1924, when it was the most exciting city in the world? Where were the best places to eat? Where was the nightlife? Who might you expect to meet? And what were the fabled 'Chariots of Fire' Olympics really like? What has changed... and indeed, what is still there? The world flocked to a city where there was no Prohibition... and little inhibition. The arts flourished. Convention was challenged, the new celebrated and non-conformity accepted. All of this and more is swept up and revealed in Paris 1924, an amusing, insightful and sometimes salacious guide to one of the world's greatest -- and most beloved cities.
