Paris Pocket Precincts by Donna Wheeler

The world’s most visited city, Paris is a place of fable and fantasy, of elegant boulevards and masterpiece-packed museums; but it's also a vibrant, fascinatingly real city, exploding with youthful energy and fresh ideas. With Paris Pocket Precincts, explore Paris as the Parisians do: share an apéro at a canal-side wine bar, discover local artisan shops selling everything from perfume to porcelain, lingerie to luggage and dance the night away in hidden basement clubs to up-and-coming DJs. In a compact, light paperback format perfect for slipping into your back pocket, this is your curated guide to the city’s most interesting cultural, shopping, eating and drinking experiences. Divided into separate precincts, each section lists the best shops, restaurants, bars and sights to see in the area. The precincts that the guide covers are: Le Premier, 1st; Sentier, Montorgueil & Bourse, 2nd; The Marais & the Islands, 3rd & 4th; Left Bank, 5th, 6th, 13th & 15th;  Eiffel Tower, Champs-Élysées, 7th, 8th & 16th; Pigalle & Opéra, 9th; Canal Saint-Martin & République, 10th; Bastille, Oberkampf & Aligre, 11th & 12th; Montmartre, Château Rouge & Barbés, 18th; Belleville, Ménilmontant & Villette, 19th & 20th. As well as detailed reviews and maps for major attractions through to hidden gems, the guide includes a selection of 'field trips' encouraging you to venture further afield to Versailles, Champagne and Lyon.
Australian writer and travel editor Donna Wheeler discovered Lisbon a decade or so after it emerged from the dark slumber of the Salazar years. She's watched with delight as it has bloomed into one of Europe's travel hotspots, and loves nothing more than basking in the city's warm glow from a Martim Montez rooftop, vinho verde in hand. Donna spent over 10 years on the road for Lonely Planet in Europe, Scandinavia and North Africa, reports for The Telegraph (UK), and is the author of Paris Pocket Precincts. She also writes on contemporary art, architecture, history, food and wine for various media outlets.
