In one of the most inventive travel books in years, Ina Caro invites readers on 25 one-day train trips that depart from Paris and transport them back through 700 years of French history. Whether taking us to orleans to evoke the miraculous visions of Joan of Arc, to Versailles to experience the flamboyant achievements of Louis XIV, or to the Place de la Concorde to witness the beheading of Marie Antoinette, Caro animates history with her lush descriptions of architectural splendors and tales of court intrigue.
