A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The stately and historic buildings, monuments, and structures of London come alive in this photographic, neighborhood-by-neighborhood tour of one of the world’s most picturesque and popular cities.

London’s many diverse neighborhoods feature a wide range of buildings old and new, from theatres, cathedrals, and palaces to townhouses, hotels, and clubs. Both the writer and the photographer are London natives who know every fascinating corner of this rambling city, and their insight and vision inform every page.

Each featured building is accompanied by informative text discussing its history and significance, along with addresses, dates, and architectural information. Neighborhood maps place the buildings within the context of the city as a whole, providing a unique and up-to-date overview of a world-class locale—and enough potential walking tours to keep visitors busy for weeks or months!
