520    This is the inspiring and, until now, untold story of the 
       adventurous American artists, writers, doctors, 
       politicians, architects, and others of high aspiration who
       set off for Paris in the years between 1830 and 1900, 
       ambitious to excel in their work. Most had never left home,
       never experienced a different culture. None had any 
       guarantee of success. That they achieved so much for 
       themselves and their country profoundly altered American 
       history. Elizabeth Blackwell, the first female doctor in 
       America; future abolitionist Charles Sumner; staunch 
       friends James Fenimore Cooper and Samuel F. B. Morse (who 
       saw something in France that gave him the idea for the 
       telegraph); pianist Louis Moreau Gottschalk; medical 
       student Oliver Wendell Holmes; writers Ralph Waldo Emerson,
       Nathaniel Hawthorne, Mark Twain, and Henry James; Harriet 
       Beecher Stowe, seeking escape from the notoriety Uncle 
       Tom's Cabin had brought her; sculptor Augustus Saint-
       Gaudens and painters Mary Cassatt and John Singer Sargent;
       and American ambassador Elihu Washburne, who bravely 
       remained at his post through the Franco-Prussian War, the 
       long Siege of Paris and even more atrocious nightmare of 
       the Commune. His vivid account in his diary of the 
       starvation and suffering endured by the people of Paris 
       (drawn on here for the first time) is one readers will 
       never forget. Nearly all of these Americans, whatever 
       their troubles, spent many of the happiest days and nights
       of their lives in Paris.--From publisher description. 
520 1  McCullough mixes famous and obscure names and delivers 
       capsule biographies of everyone to produce a colorful 
       parade of educated, Victorian-era American travelers and 
       their life-changing experiences in Paris.
