"Here H.V.Morton begins his wandering in the City, where Roman London began, and follows, westwards, the course of London's seventeenth and eighteenth-century expansion. He describes the London he has himself known, from the rich and arrogant city of his youth to the battered and shabby London of today. He gives vivid pictures of great Londoners of the past. He takes the reader with him about the famous streets and squares and buildings with an infallible eye for the odd, entertaining and interesting things to be found in the great city. In all, there are few aspects of London he does not touch upon. Here is a lasting memento for the overseas visitor, for Londoners in their thousands, and for all those readers for whom Mr. Morton has long been the perfect guide and the most entertaining companion." Contents Include: I Go in Search of London In Which I Go to the Tower of London I Go to London Bridge in the Early Morning Describes St. Paul's Cathedral and the Great Man Sir Christopher Wren, Who Built it A Walk Along the Strand from Temple Bar to Charing Cross I Turn on the Fountains in Trafalgar Square In Which I Go to Westminster Abbey I Visit the Houses of Parliament and See the New House of Commons I Go to St. James's Palace and Remember the Day When it Was a Refuge for Female Lepers How Piccadilly Became the Heart of the West End I See Regent's Park Visit the Zoo and Madame Tussaud's A Few Words About the Treasure Houses of South Kensington
