Paris with the Lid Lifted

Newly published under the Applewood After Dark imprint is a facsimile of this lighthearted "guide book” to Parisian nightlife in the 1920s, written by Bruce Reynolds. Subtitled "A new sort of 'Travel Cocktail' that works fast and kicks hard, and opens the gates to a 'million dollars' worth of frolic—IN PARIS,” this humorously-illustrated travelogue was originally published in 1927. It offers "inside information to make your next trip to Paris a whirlwind of joy.”

"All you need to have a good time is money and alibis,” says Reynolds, and his hilarious, and naughty, look at all Paris has to offer the visiting American not only is sure to amuse, but provides useful information on the sights, sounds, tastes, and attractions of the City of Light during the Jazz Age.
