De ma fenêtre, also Paris de ma Fenetre

ok, to start, I am holding a physical copy of this book in paperback. It says copyright 1944 by Editions du Mileu du Monde. It has a preface by Monsiuer Francis Carco, of the Academie Goncourt. On the back it is stamped twice, in english and in french, printed in Canada. The book is printed on pulp type paper, so the cover merely contains print, in 2 colors, black and red. My french is not quite so good as to shed any light on the subject matter, and I have only found this book in my attic today, so I have yet to even try. There are 239 pages of text, from preface to end, and the book is divided into sections marked off by roman numerals, of which there are eleven. After the text, on the next page, appears this block of text: "Le Bon A Tirer du Present Ouvrage A Ete Donne A l'imprimerie Saint Joseph par la S.A. Editions du Mileu du Monde A Geneve (Suisse), Pour sa Succursale de Montreal, 750 Rue St.Gabriel, le Vingt-Neuf Octobre Mil Neuf Cent Quarante-six." Which then dates this book to 1946. (The accent marks which should apply to the preceeding text are absent simply because I do not know how to make them.)
