Paris: The Secret History
Price: £9.99
Add to basketLess secret than anecdotal, this is the history of Paris told through the ordinary people that lived it, and wildly enjoyable for that. Hussey eschews measured historical and political fact - for which see Colin Jones's rival volume - in favour of sensuous storytelling. The tabloid, then, to Jones's broadsheet.
