Synopsis

Secret London - An unusual guide is the original and still the best of all the many alternative London guides: accept no imitation. Authors Rachel Howard and Bill Nash have prowled the city streets, seeking out the hidden, eccentric and overlooked.

Where can you peer inside Richard Burton's tent? Whatever happened to Bedlam? Where can you praise God, buy meatballs and have a sauna? What's in the House of Dreams? Where can you find monsters in Trafalgar Square? What's growing quietly under your feet? To which secret society does Prince Charles belong? What's the trick to instant weight loss?
