London's Hidden Walks by Stephen Millar
People love walking the streets of London, but there are always more questions than answers after a stroll through the capital. The is the 2nd volume of London's Hidden Walks and features a further 13 new walks that will enable the reader to follow in the footsteps of authors and statesmen, murderers and revolutionaries. With over 400 full-colour photographs, this book is packed with interesting details about London's history with both personal tales of those that wandered the same streets in former years and a more general social and economic history of the different areas covered. Each walk is brought to life with thumbnail photos, striking full-page photos and detailed maps illustrating the route and where buildings and points of interest are located. From open sunny squares, to winding alleyways and quiet hidden corners, explore London and discover how 2,000 years of colourful history have shaped this city.
