  • Paris of the Parisians

    John Frederick MacDonald

    Paperback (Ulan Press, Aug. 31, 2012)
    This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

  • Paris of the Parisians

    John F. Macdonald

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, Oct. 13, 2017)
    Excerpt from Paris of the ParisiansThe purpose of these sketches is not political nor yet didactic. No charge is laid upon me to teach the French nation its duties, to reprove it for its follies. Nor yet is it my design to hold up Paris of the Parisians as an example of naughtiness, nor even of virtue, to English readers. A student of human life still in my humanities, my purpose is purely interpretative. I would endeavour to trans late into English some Paris scenes, in such a way as to give a true impression of the movement, personages, sounds, colours, and atmosphere per vaded With joy of living which belongs to them. These impressions Which I have myself received, and now desire to communicate, are not the result of a general survey of Paris taken from some lofty summit. I have not looked down upon the capital of F rance from the top of the Eiffel Tower; nor yet from the terrace of the Sacré Coeur; nor yet from the balcony among the chimeres of Notre.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
