When you think of London, what do you picture? Westminster Abbey?
The electric lights of Piccadilly Circus? The grandeur of
Buckingham Palace? Or do you see busy shopping areas, beautiful
bridges and buzzing bars and restaurants? Or is it the parks, the
boats on the River Thames and the bustling train stations that
spring to mind? With London there are just so many intriguing sides
to the city. In 200 outstanding images, London celebrates this
remarkable capital city, from its world-famous landmarks to cobbled
alleyways, from the dizzy heights of The Shard and The Gherkin down
to its railway stations and deeper still to the city's jam-packed
underground. Ranging from both classic and modern landmarks, this
book covers everything from parks to transportation. From tennis at
Wimbledon to shopping at Harrods and afternoon tea at Claridge's,
Alastair Horne explores a plethora of aspects to this sprawling
metropolis. Presented in a handy pocket-sized landscape format and
with captions revealing many fascinating but little-known facts
about the history and culture of this diverse city, London is a
stunning collection of images of one of the world's most iconic
cities.
