5.0 out of 5 stars fascinating!!, 8 May 2008
By A. Hubbard (norfolk,england) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
this is an absolute must for all fans of Paul Talling's website of the same name.It gives an insight into the lesser known side of London,from hospitals to pubs,left to decay or be demolished to make way for yet more luxury flats (rabbit hutches) or offices.Its very sad to see the old,beautiful buildings like the numourus public houses being demolished,its like pulling the heart out of London's history...................Buy this book its brilliant!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb, 29 April 2008
By A. L. Rispoli (SW London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
An excellent book, my only criticism being there is not enough of it!! The places are photographed beautifully, there is a full history of the buildings and to finish off with a section documenting some buildings that have been restored and renovated is pure class! This book does not disappoint, it is the most interesting book I have read in a long time!

3.0 out of 5 stars Too small, 27 Dec 2008
By David Bootle (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Am I the only one who was shocked to find how small this book is? Of course, I should have checked the dimensions before buying, but somehow I don't feel too stupid for assuming that a book of beautifully shot photographs would be of a size where they can be appreciated... not some titchy pocket book.
