Access in Paris – Disabled Travelers
“This well established guidebook was originally published in 1974, and was the first guidebook ever to use the title ‘Access’ referring to access by disabled people. Later editions were published in 1985, 1993 and 2008.
The website includes updated information and is available as a book or can be downloaded in PDF format from the website from June 2008.” Contact Gordon Couch

Paris and Beyond in France
Paris Restaurants, Hotels & Apartments; Culture, Customs, Books, and Tips: Notes From Our Experiences.
Over the years we have shared many versions of these notes, set out here in six parts (see “Subject List” on right), with Paris-bound friends. Now we will share more broadly.
Two very visited areas in their blog may be of interest to my readers:
One of the most visited parts of our blog is our “12 restaurant tips.” This section is not about specific restaurants (we have another section on our blog for that), but instead, it’s a list of “how to blend in” tips — addressing culture and etiquette, and based on our experiences. Many French friends have told us that they wish all visitors would read this section — maybe this will cause a few Americans to speak less loudly, to the benefit of all of us!
We also have a listing of books about France and the French — this reflects our view that traveling to France is much more enjoyable and interesting if one can at least attempt to understand the society and culture.
