Volume 10 — How Paris Amuses Itself
Reading edition
By F. BERKELEY SMITH
Author of "The Real Latin Quarter"
This jolly, handsome book is the very incarnation of that spirit of amusement which reigns supreme in the capital of the world's fun. The author unites the graphic skill of the artist, the infectious enthusiasm of the lover of fun and gaiety, and the intimate personal knowledge of the long-time resident in this great playground of the world. In spirit the reader can visit with a delightful comrade all the nooks of jollity known only to the initiated, enjoy all the sparkle and glitter of the ever-moving panorama of gaiety, and become a part of the merry throng.
"It is the gayest book of the season and is as handsome mechanically as it is interesting as a narrative. The sparkle, the glow, the charm of the risque, the shimmer of silks, and the glint of jewels—are all so real and apparent."—Buffalo Courier.
"The very spirit of modern Paris is prisoned in its text."—Life.
"There is about the whole book that air of light-heartedness and frolic which is essentially Parisian. This book is a book for everybody—those who know Paris and those who do not know it."—North American, Philadelphia.
