Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. JOSEPHY, Helen and MCBRIDE, Mary Margaret [299] pp. Coward-McCann, Inc. 1929 8 3/8" x 6" The companion volume to London Is a Man's Town, this book is written for the American heiress or bride planning an interlude in Paris perhaps a few weeks to purchase couture or maybe a year or longer to savor its culture and nightlife. The authors know the milieu well, and in retrospect, they offer a perfect time capsule of international Paris society in the era between the wars, with fascinating descriptions of its couture houses, the social calendar, the restaurants, nightclubs, neighborhoods, etc. Paris society is a curious mixture. For years, American climbers with money and no social prospects in New York have crossed the ocean and started over again on the other side. If they succeed in Paris or London, they can sneak in the back door and storm the gates of Newport itself. --Helen Josephy.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. JOSEPHY, Helen [355] pp. Coward-McCann, Inc. 1930 8 1/2" x 6" Jacket design by Helen E. Hokinson London might be a man s town, but this travel guide, geared towards socially inclined Americans, is just the sort of book Wallis Simpson might have found useful when she first moved across the Atlantic (it was published in that era). It includes sections on the best hotels, tailors, clubs, and restaurants (with emphasis on the boldfaced names to be seen in each). The book is uncommon; the dust jacket even more so. We think it s a pity Americans who rent country houses in England can t take on the owners, too, so that they may be shown how to properly enjoy the places. --Helen Josephy.…
