A New Yorker In The Foreign Office And His Adventures In Paris is a memoir written by Henry Wikoff, an American journalist who was appointed as a diplomatic agent to the United States Consulate in Paris in the mid-19th century. The book chronicles Wikoff's experiences in the French capital, where he rubbed shoulders with the city's elite and witnessed some of the most significant events of the era, including the 1848 revolution and the rise of Napoleon III. Wikoff's observations and anecdotes provide a unique insight into the political, social, and cultural climate of Paris during this period, making this book a valuable historical document as well as an entertaining read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
