Publisher's Synopsis
After six long years of war the world wanted entertainment and light, and Paris was the place to find it. Peter Weston was a teenager at the time, and he was immediately captivated by the charm of French capital, from the high-kicking dancing girls of the Folies-Bergére to the awe-inspiring architecture of Sacré Coeur and jumble of cobbled streets around Montmartre, Stephane Grappelli, Charles Trenet, Maurice Chevalier, Jean Sablon, Edith Piaf and countless street accordianists - these were the singers and musicians who delighted Paris audiences in the years after the Second World War and no reminiscences of the city at that time could be complete without them.
