N2  - "Paris, From the Earliest Period to the Present Day; Volume 2" by William Walton is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the development and administration of Paris through its history, with a focus on political systems, legal institutions, and significant events that shaped the city. In particular, it highlights the evolving roles of the Parlement de Paris and other governing bodies, as well as the social dynamics that influenced the city's governance.  The opening of the volume establishes a foundation for understanding Paris's rich historical narrative, beginning with the functions and evolution of the Parlement de Paris, which was crucial in the administration of justice and governance. Walton discusses the various kings, such as Saint-Louis and Philippe le Bel, their interactions with the Parlement, the social order, and the pivotal decisions that impacted both the city and the nation. The account addresses notable historical instances of judicial processes, the rise of municipal authority, and reforms during times of turmoil, painting a detailed picture of Parisian life and governance throughout the ages.
