About this book
Twenty Centuries of Paris is a book by Mabell S. C. Smith. The contents list names chapters titled Earliest Paris, Merovingian Paris and Paris of Saint Louis, among others.
A chapter headed Merovingian Paris says that a band of less than 10,000 “barbarians”, led by Clovis, swept across a comparatively unresisting Gaul. The text says Francis himself wrote not badly, and gives a poem headed Epitaph on Agnes Sorel with the line Here lies entombed the fairest of the fair. The text calls Marguerite of Navarre, Francis’s sister, equally enthusiastic and talented. The text names the passing of the horse-drawn omnibus with its roof seats as a change consummated since 1913 began.
