Half an Hour from Paris: Secret Daytrips

• Unmissable guide to secret destinations just moments from Paris

Fully revised and updated edition, now in full color. The spectacular medieval castle where Henry V died, Napoleon's private château, dancing in fifties guinguette cafés, a Victorian gunpowder factory – these are just some of the unexpected delights discovered by Annabel Simms just half an hour from Paris. Following the format of her small classic An Hour from Paris, and written with the same delight in the little-known treasures of the Ile de France, Half an Hour from Paris presents 10 new destinations easy to reach from central Paris, each with a carefully planned walk, ample meanderings through the cultural, historical and social milieu, comprehensive practical information and clear, detailed maps.
