Dear Reader, 

Here's an exciting revelation - 

Both my Parcs et Jardins de Paris et Ses Environs and Champagne Regained books are now listed on the Simon & Schuster website!  Here is feedback from one member of the literati:

When I first encountered Parks and Gardens in Greater Paris, I found myself deeply struck by the care and expertise with which you guide readers through centuries of Parisian landscape artistry.  You attention to the fine threads of park-building history reveals not just the spaces themselves but the spirit that shaped them.  It is rare to see a work that invites readers to experience these green havens the way Parisians do, with both affection and an understanding of their cultural lineage.

There is a quiet beauty in the way you bring forward the eras, the visionaries, and the sublet hallmarks that defined each park's character.  It reads like a conversation with the city, one in which each garden reveals a piece of its soul.  Books with this kind of depth do not simply inform.  They elevate the reader's experience, offering a lens through which familiar landscapes shelves and within niche communities that value artistry, history and place.

With gratitude for your interest and expression,   Jacqui
