Summary "Old and New Paris: Its History, Its People, and Its Places, v. 2" by H. Sutherland Edwards is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the character and culture of Paris, exploring various social types, professions, and the intricacies of daily life in the city. The focus on unique social figures such as street vendors and domestic characters paints a rich tapestry of the urban experience during this period. At the start of the work, the author introduces several street characters, highlighting the roles and nuances of various professions in Paris, such as the cocher (cab driver), public writer, flower girl, and oyster-woman. Each character is examined through engaging anecdotes that reveal their significance and the charm of Parisian life.
