These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Paris Vistas: Look inside the book: If I were literal-minded, I suppose I should either abandon my title or make this book a series of descriptions of Sacré Coeur, crowning Montmartre, as you see the church from dark gray to ghostly white, according to the day, at the end of apartment-house-lined streets from the allée of the Observatoire, from the Avenue Montaigne, from the rue de Solférino, and from the Rue Taitbout. ...Then I would have my long walk with Papa, who didn't stay like Marie on the Champs-Elysées or in the Tuileries, but who would take me (Emily was too little) where there were crowds. ...And then he told me the story of how young Bonaparte, called upon to prevent a mob from rushing the Tuileries, put his guns on the steps of Saint-Roch, swept the street in both directions, and demonstrated that he was the first man since '89 who could dominate a Parisian crowd. About Helen Davenport Gibbons, the Author: 1 She made known the facts of the massacres that she herself witnessed in Tarsus and Adana in a book entitled, The Red Rugs of Tarsus, a series of letters in which she chronicled her and her husband’s (Herbert Adams Gibbons) first hand experiences. ...Shortly after her marriage to Herbert Adams Gibbons in June 1908 at the age of 25, she traveled with her husband to Turkey where he was working on his doctoral thesis, teaching and also writing as a foreign correspondent for the New York Herald.4 In 1916 Herbert published The Blackest Page of Modern History: Events in Armenia in 1915 – The Facts and Responsibilities.
