Walk through the Streets of Paris with Ernest Hemingway. In gorgeous black & white images, Hemingway`s Paris depicts a story of remarkable passion--for a city, a woman, & a time. No other city in any of his travels was as significant, professionally or emotionally, as was Paris. & it remains there, all of the complexity, beauty, & intrigue that Hemingway described in the pages of so much of his work. It is all still there for the reader & traveler to experience--the history, the streets, & the city. Restaurants, hotels, homes, sites & favorite bars are all detailed here. The ninety-five black & white photographs in Hemingway`s Paris are of the highest caliber. The accompanying text reveals Wheeler`s deep understanding of the man; his torment, talent, obstacles & the places of refuge needed to nurture one of the preeminent writers of the twentieth century. Moved by the humanistic writing of the man--a writer capable of transcending his readers to foreign settings & into the hearts & minds of his protagonists--Wheeler was inspired to travel throughout France, Italy, Spain, Africa, & Cuba, where he has sought to gain insight into the motivation behind Hemingway`s books & short stories. As a teacher, lecturer, & photojournalist, he set out to capture & interpret the Paris that Ernest Hemingway experienced in the first part of the century. Through his journal & photographs, Wheeler portrays the intimate connection Hemingway had with the woman he never stopped loving, Hadley, & with the city he loved most, Paris. ...

Hendon is famous for its aerodrome & aviation pioneers, but its history begins with the Romans. A rural district, renowned for its hay production, Hendon provided much of London's horse feed. From the 1900s to the 1980s the town was a hub of industrial activity. Golders Green, then not much more than a crossroads surrounded by fields, was the unlikely choice for the terminus of the Northern line in 1907, transforming it into an extensive suburb of modestly priced houses. ...
