Summary: Thomas Jefferson arrived in Paris in 1784. The Following year he replaced Benjamin Franklin as U.S. Minister, and the ensuing four years he spent in Paris were among the happiest years of his life. This handsomely illustrated book provides a remarkable glimpse of the Paris Jefferson knew - Paris on the eve of the French Revolution. Here are not only Jefferson's friends and the houses, gardens, and land-marks he knew, here, too, are the inventions he admired, the bookshops and printers he visited, and the theaters, concerts, art sales, and exhibitions of the day -- [cont.]
