In some respects it is a glorified Baedeker, a guide for the traveller
interested in French history, in pictures, and in the distinctive
qualities of the French people. There is charm in its vivid painting
of the vivacity and gayety of Paris streets, fine analysis in the
penetration that sees often a suggestion of anxiety under the animation
of face and gesture. He has a happy faculty of creating a desire to see
the scenes he describes and a knack of expressing exactly the shade of
pleasure the cultivated traveller has felt and perhaps been unable to
put into words.
