The People of Paris: An Essay in Popular Culture in the 18th Century Volume 2

In his collective portrait of the common people, Roche offers a rich and fascinating description of their lives-their housing, food, dress, financial dealings, literature, domestic life, and leisure time. Roche's highly readable style and use of contemporary quotations enliven the reader's view of eighteenth-century Paris and Parisians.
