I am appreciative of the kind and courteous assistance from the staff at the Mount Pleasant Public Library in Pleasantville, New York, and I remain deeply grateful to my brilliant and kind boss and mentor, Chip Gibson, who has long supported The Collected Traveler. Finally, thanks to my husband, Jeff, and our daughter, Alyssa, whose favorite Parisian experience (so far) is riding the carousel near the foot of the Eiffel Tower.
