The Path to Paris: The Rambling Record of a Riverside Promenade: The Rambling Record of a Riverside Promenade (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda
Sinopsis
A journey along the Seine becomes a way to Paris and a window into art, history, and quiet travel.
In these pages, the narrator and a companion choose a water route over rail, tracing the river from Havre to the city. They seek not only scenery, but a slower pace that reveals towns, abbeys, and landscapes that have shaped painting and memory. The voyage blends practical travel notes with reflections on ruins, gardens, and the people met along the way, from Jumieges to Meudon and beyond.
What you’ll experience
- A deliberate route: following the Seine, with pauses for villages, abbeys, and moments of sunset light.
- Vivid scenes of Jumieges, St. Denis, Rouen, and Meudon, tied to art and history.
- Gentle social observations about hotel life, simple meals, and the habits of travelers seeking quiet.
- Moments of awe at riverside views, castle ruins, and the changing light over the French landscape.
Ideal for readers of travel writing, art history, and 19th–century memoirs who crave a reflective, vividly detailed river journey to Paris.

Excerpt from The Path to Paris: The Rambling Record of a Riverside Promenade
He ignored my interruption, and proceeded, Before leaving Paris I inquired by what route I could see most of the sea. One told me We? Havre, so I took my ticket accordingly. No, I was not ill. I am 'good sailor.' I enjoyed myself keenly. Here I am, and there is every thing.
