Product Description

Synopsis
This new edition of a longstanding favourite brings the story of London right up to date. The Times History of London is a visual and narrative feast for anyone -- visitor and Londoner alike -- with an interest in this great and complex city. An outstanding illustrated survey of one of the world's greatest cities, this fourth edition of The Times History of London is the most exciting description of London in all its many aspects. Arranged in a clear chronological order and accompanied by a wealth of maps, illustrations and photographs, its coverage is as diverse as it is relevant. The book traces the history of London from the earliest evidence of human habitation 40,000 years ago to the city at the beginning of the 21st century. A concise and lucid narrative along with photographs, paintings and maps tell the complex story of London and the people and events responsible for the way it has been shaped over the centuries. An etymology of London place names, a full chronology and a comprehensive index all help to make the book an indispensable companion to the Londoner and lover of London.

5.0 out of 5 stars ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT, 15 Nov 2000
By Mrs. S. C. Mead "Sue Mead" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Times History of London is a truly superb book. I bought it and could not put it down. Each page takes you on a voyage of discovery and tells you things you never knew about the history and social development of this amazing capital city. Absolutely brilliant 10 out of 10, a real MUST HAVE title!

5.0 out of 5 stars The London story we have been waiting for, 3 Dec 2007
By J. W. Whitehead - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Not just history, but the importance of London's geography in its growth as the leading world city.

Up until now there has been a lack of a good synopsis of London's past.

And a great coffee table book to pick up and browse.
