About the Author:

Mark Beffart

From Library Journal:

Beffart's newest contribution to travel literature is similar to Let's Go: France 1995 (St. Martin's, 1994) but limited just to places to visit in Paris. The concept of extremely cheap varies from a low of nine francs (about $1.80) or less for entrance to private gardens and parks, to a high of 36 francs (about $7.20) for sports, concerts, and theater events. As with most guidebooks, the volume begins with general tourist information, followed by the directory, which is organized around Paris's 20 arrondissements (a city government or administrative district). Public transportation availability for each site is included. One useful feature is the inclusion of special free or reduced admission times. There is also a discussion of architectural and historical features. The limited use of illustrations and maps reduce the appeal of this guide. Recommended as a supplementary selection for public libraries with large travel collections.
