The Green London Way is an alternative approach to the exploration
of London. The book describes a hundred mile walk circling the
capital, but, uniquely, also offers insightful histories of
London's people and a commentary on its abundant local wildlife.
The walk, divided into manageable sections, each with maps by
Graham Scrivener (the 'urban Wainwright'), traverses London's tow
paths, woodlands and commons, examining links between local human
history and the landscape on which it is founded. This updated
version of the text also incorporates discussion of the rapid
developments in London in the past twenty years, analysing the
features which have recently changed the face of the city. Bob
Gilbert provides a wealth of information about the plant and animal
life of London, including some surprising instances of rare
species. In terms of wildlife, landscape and history, The Green
London Way is full of discoveries for any walker or reader, and
provides a new awareness of Greater London.
