Baxter has turned his experience giving literary walking tours into a memoir that offers a history of Paris through the lives of literary geniuses like Gertrude Stein, James Joyce, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Earnest Hemmingway. In addition to Baxter’s musings, the book includes a map with a list of cafes and literary haunts. This book offers lessons on how to get lost in Paris and wander the streets with an open mind. It’s descriptive, languid and a very anti-touristy travel guide for Paris. Not only that, make sure to explore the iconic museums, see the views from Carlton Hill and Arthur’s Seat and explore the New Town with its grid streets and gorgeous little shops. It’s such a great city. There’s so much to see in Paris. Even if you get your travel inspiration from magazines and blogs, it’s also helpful to have a Paris guide book. This curated list includes the best general Paris guide books, pretty neighborhood guides, inspiration for historical and cultural walking tours and insights into the quirky corners of Paris.

History-rich Bath sits right at the top of our list of the most beautiful cities on home turf. This quietly charming Somerset town shot to fame in Roman times for its mineral-rich thermal waters, later becoming a stomping ground for well-to-do Georgians who flaunted their wealth by building the elegant streets and curvaceous crescents from buttery Bath stone. Today, it’s a picturesque bubble of cosy tearooms, artisan markets and independent boutiques, anchored around the magnificent seventh-century Abbey and gorgeous Pulteney Bridge, Bath’s answer to Venice's Rialto or Florence's Ponte Vecchio. If you’re seeking fresh country air, Royal Victoria Park is an oasis of botanical gardens, wild meadows and gurgling streams, while the pretty Cotswolds gently but gloriously unfurl along the fringes of the city.So, it should be no surprise that I’m recommending at least one Paris guide book full of weird relics.
