Book excerpt: With stunning locations and page-turning tension, The Paris Secret is an intense and gripping tale from bestselling author Karen Swan, the perfect escapism for fans of Santa Montefiore. Not every door should be opened . . . Somewhere along the cobbled streets of Paris, an apartment lies thick with dust and secrets: full of priceless artworks hidden away for decades. High-flying fine art agent Flora from London, more comfortable with the tension of a million-pound auction than a cosy candlelit dinner for two, is called in to assess these suddenly discovered treasures. As an expert in her field, she must trace the history of each painting and discover who has concealed them for so long. Thrown in amongst the glamorous Vermeil family as they move between Paris and Antibes, Flora begins to discover that things aren’t all that they seem, while back at home her own family is recoiling from a seismic shock. The terse and brooding Xavier Vermeil seems intent on forcing Flora out of his family’s affairs – but just what is he hiding? 'The next best thing to jumping on the Eurostar and being there' – Chris Manby, author of Three Days in Florence 'Escaping into a world of art, beauty and heartbreaking history, I was caught on page one and didn’t put it down until I finished it' – Liz Fenwick, author of The Cornish House Enjoy more of Karen Swan's captivating seasonal novels with The Greek Escape and The Rome Affair.

Book excerpt: Tourism gentrification is a critical shaping force of socio-economic and contemporary urban landscapes. This book aims to be the first substantive text on this subject, explaining the multiple and complex relationships between tourism and gentrification and their outcomes and manifestations in contemporary metropolises. This is achieved by drawing on in-depth case analyses addressing the different issues at stake. Part I deals with the manifestations of tourism gentrification and the ways it affects urban landscapes through heritagization and urban regeneration strategies. Part II looks at the correlations between tourism gentrification and culture. Finally, the last two parts aim to identify and examine forms and expressions of tourism gentrification, distinguishing among the actors, beneficiaries, and victims of the phenomenon while looking at its implications for intra-metropolitan territories and metropolitan governance. The book approaches these issues in an innovative way, by looking at a variety of metropolises in a diverse range of countries and by dealing with the different relations and management issues generated by gentrification in relation to tourism. Through interdisciplinary approaches, this groundbreaking text sheds light on the role tourism plays in contemporary metropolises, furthering knowledge of urban tourism. For these reasons, it will be of particular interest to scholars and students of tourism, urban studies, geography, anthropology and sociology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1914 Germany’s Pacific colonies were a quiet backwater of its empire. But the shots of Sarajevo shattered the Pacific as well as Europe. Within weeks of the outbreak of World war I Western Samoa - German territory to be taken in the war - New Guinea, and the Micronesian lands, were occupied by Australian, New Zealand, and Japanese forces. Current historiography claims that World War I made little difference to the indigenous populations of the Pacific and that this change in colonial masters had little effect on those they ruled. The Neglected War challenges this interpretation. World War I and its aftermath, Hermann Hiery claims, had a tremendous effect on the Pacific Islands, Hiery details the policies pursued by Australia, New Zealand, and Japan, showing how each viewed and treated the indigenous populations. Administered by military officers with little civil oversight, the new colonial regimes employed the mandates they had received at the Paris Peace Conference with impunity. Hiery’s scrupulous review of the evidence, gathered from largely unknown primary sources, has uncovered a story of masquerades and coverups, negligence and duplicity, leading in some cases to full blown atrocities. Most of all, he tells the story of Pacific Islanders ,how they coped with the dramatic changes brought about by the war, and how they tried to influence its consequences. Many Islanders were fully aware that their political destiny was to be redefined after the war, and a few even saw it as an opportunity to achieve independence. This is also the story of their failure. Behind the evidence gathered here lie fundamental questions. How important are the differences in the nature of particular colonial regimes, and what effect do such differences have on indigenous peoples? How do indigenous peoples interpret disparities in colonial rule? This revisionist work addresses these issues while shedding light on a crucial time in the history of the Pacific.

Book excerpt: A richly illustrated look at some of the most important photobooks of the 20th century France experienced a golden age of photobook production from the late 1920s through the 1950s. Avant-garde experiments in photography, text, design, and printing, within the context of a growing modernist publishing scene, contributed to an outpouring of brilliantly designed books. Making Strange offers a detailed examination of photobook innovation in France, exploring seminal publications by Brassaï, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Frank, Pierre Jahan, William Klein, and Germaine Krull. Kim Sichel argues that these books both held a mirror to their time and created an unprecedented modernist visual language. Sichel provides an engaging analysis through the lens of materiality, emphasizing the photobook as an object with which the viewer interacts haptically as well as visually. Rich in historical context and beautifully illustrated, Making Strange reasserts the role of French photobooks in the history of modern art.

Book excerpt: " Paris, dans ses permanentes métamorphoses, accumule les secrets les plus dépareillés, les invraisemblances les mieux déguisées par l'histoire, les légendes bétonnées dans la réalité et toute la palette des possibles. " Michel Dansel, enfant de Belleville et de Ménilmontant, définit ainsi, dans une préface savoureuse, sa vision de notre capitale, " véritable kaléidoscope " dont il dévoile les multiples facettes, souvent baroques et extravagantes, avec la curiosité passionnée d'un promeneur " pathologiquement " amoureux de sa ville. Il n'est pas d'avenue, pas de coin de rue qui, pour l'auteur, ne comporte une part d'énigme, de trouble et de merveilleux. Historien et archéologue à sa manière, cet arpenteur d'un Paris insolite et clandestin est prodigue en trouvailles originales et singulières, parfois invérifiables mais toujours vraisemblables. Ainsi évoque-t-il la présence possible d'une cité souterraine dans le quartier du Marais où quatre enfants auraient découvert en 1965 une grotte préhistorique vieille de dix-sept mille ans, dont les peintures seraient comparables à celles retrouvées à Lascaux ; les " trésors cachés " qui se trouveraient dans la statue équestre d'Henri IV, sur le Pont-Neuf ; l'histoire d'une célèbre maison close située au 12, rue Chabanais, dans le 2e arrondissement ; l'existence d'un cimetière des bossus dans celui de Saint-Côme ; d'un club des divorcés qui se réunissait avenue Bosquet ; d'une clinique spécialisée dans la réparation des poussettes et landaus de collection, 16, rue du Chalet, dans le 10e ; d'un pont des suicidés dans le parc des Buttes-Chaumont... Chaque lieu emblématique ou endroit méconnu de Paris est ainsi raconté et révélé sous son aspect légendaire et anecdotique, loin des vérités de l'histoire officielle. La manière à la fois la plus instructive et la plus divertissante qui soit de nous faire découvrir les secrets d'une cité aux trésors inépuisables.
