From the earliest years of the American republic, Paris has provoked an extraordinary American literary response. An almost inevitable destination for writers and thinkers, Paris has been many things to many Americans: a tradition-bound bastion of the old world of Europe; a hotbed of revolutionary ideologies in politics and art; and a space in which to cultivate an openness to life and love thought impossible at home. Including stories, letters, memoirs, and reporting, Americans in Paris distills three centuries of vigorous, glittering, and powerfully emotional writing about the place that Henry James called “the most brilliant city in the world.”

American writers came to Paris as statesmen, soldiers, students, tourists, and sometimes they stayed as expatriates. This anthology ranges from the crucial early impressions of Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin to the latter-day reflections of writers as varied as James Baldwin, Isadora Duncan, and Jack Kerouac. Along the way we encounter the energetic travelers of the nineteenth century—Emerson, Mark Twain, Henry James—and the pilgrims of the twentieth: Gertrude Stein, F. Scott Fitzgerald, E. E. Cummings, Cole Porter, Henry Miller. Come along as Thomas Paine takes a direct and dangerous part in the French Revolution; Harriet Beecher Stowe tours the Louvre; Theodore Dreiser samples the sensual enticements of Parisian nightlife; Edith Wharton movingly describes Paris in the early days of World War I; John Dos Passos charts the gathering political storms of the 1930s; Paul Zweig recalls the intertwined pleasures of language and sex; and A. J. Liebling savors the memory of his culinary education in delicious detail.

Americans in Paris is a diverse and constantly engaging mosaic, full of revealing cultural gulfs and misunderstandings, personal and literary experimentation, and profound moments of self-discovery.

Finally done with cheap chargers Anker is the only way to go!
Color: White, Size: 2pack & 2cable
After years of fighting with cheap cables and blocks that stop working after a month, I’ve officially switched to Anker for everything. These 20W USB-C chargers work amazingly well and actually deliver the fast charging they promise for my iPhone. The build quality is on a different level compared to generic brands. They are compact, don't overheat, and the connection is rock solid every time. Save yourself the headache and just get these they are reliable, durable, and worth every penny.

Love all Anker products and this one as well
Color: purple, Size: 2pack & 2cable
These work really great, but the biggest reason I love them is the purple color! They are easy to spot in a bag, suitcase, etc. and are very distinguishable from all my other cables! Anker is a favorite brand!

High quality and fast charging
Color: White, Size: 2pack & 2cable
Love these. They charge iPhones very quickly as well as iPads - much better quality than other USB-C and especially better than the lightning ports. They last long and do not get hot.
