'Slow Walks in Paris' distills 25 leisurely explorations of the real Paris. Michael Leitch guides you through the neighborhoods so you can experience the city without conusion. Easty to read maps direct you through the Ritz Quarter, the Quai d'Orsay, the Two Islands, the Latin Quarter, Montparnasse, the Champs Elysees, Montmartre and many more places. There's a tour for cooks and one for shoppers. By taking the anxiety out of where to start, the book gives you time to really enjoy the city while preserving the excitement of personal discovery.

In addition, the book features advice to walkers on - what to wear and carry - the georgraphy of Paris and how to find your way around - Metro and buses - office, shop, market and museum hours - public holidays - addresses of cafes, tea shops, bars, bistros and brasseries - where to get money and credit - and much more.

Along the way, the author shares his thoughts about the people, places and streets of the city he has been exporing since childhood.
