Georgian London by John Summerson

In this new edition, Sir John Summerson has completely overhauled and substantially revised his text. It tells the story of Georgian architecture as it really was, a product of ambition, industry and sometimes genius. Statesmen, connoisseurs, merchants, visionaries, architects and jerry-builders are among the many characters who people this history of London at the height of its glory. The author also wrote "John Nash", "Heavenly Mansions", "Architecture in Britain, 1530-1830" and edited "Book of John Thorpe" and "Classical Language in Architecture".
