Do you know how the Mona Lisa ended up in the Louvre? Or how many heads were chopped off on the spot now occupied by the Place de la Concorde? Or that the last Gallic warriors massacred by the Romans are buried beneath the Eiffel Tower? Or how a 17th-century traffic jam led to the murder of France's King Henri IV? Using 21 stops of the Paris Metro as its starting points - from La Cite to La Defense - this book describes the events and the people that have shaped the world's most romantic city.
