Book Synopsis
In the second half of the nineteenth century, state and municipal governments oversaw the explosive growth of public parks, squares, and gardens throughout Paris. Richard Hopkins skilfully weaves together social and cultural history to argue that the expansion of these greenspaces served as more than simple urban embellishment.
