Summary: What defines the Parisian landscape? The mind instantly goes to a city with its tower, with its Haussmannian uniformity and its wide boulevards. But what really makes Paris, it's true lifeblood, is the Seine river, as much a protagonist in the city's story as its streets or landmarks. That's the conceit of a new book by bestselling author and former New York Times Paris bureau chief, Elaine Sciolino. "The Seine: the river that made Paris", her new book, is at once a chronicle of the Seine's role through history in everyday life and a personal account of one woman and her undying fascination with the world's most romantic waterway.
