This original and innovative book examines a period in with the
development of London was perhaps at its most intense, for in the
opening decades of the nineteenth century a concerted attempt was
made to transform the metropolis into a modern European capital.
For the first time the re-imaging of London is considered in
relation to attitudes towards land, land ownership and the use of
landscapes. The author contends that methods of land management and
development and the associative values of landscape usually
connected with rural environments, were in many ways equally
applicable to country and city and formed essential components in
the evolution of the metropolis. This study of London landscapes
will be of relevance to a broad range of researchers, academics and
those with a lively interest in architectural, social, economic and
cultural history. -- .
