Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

Just a great book, that will delight people who think they know the city, and provide for many a present to distant friends and relatives. However you define a city, London certainly has a lot going for it as regards weird and wonderful, and the trivial yet fascinating. And, luckily for us, so has this book. Halliday's writing, especially when he tempers his previously-seen habit of little box-outs and bonus trivia scattered across the page, is superb, his knowledge almost equal to The Knowledge, and the results will be most welcome to anyone who knows, or thinks they know, or thinks they should know, this city. --The Bookbag - September 2015

Reseña del editor:

This is a unique collection of strange laws, heroic deeds, surprising revelations and other quirky stories that have shaped the unique history of Britain's capital. London's long history is an extraordinarily rich source of amazing facts, whether your interest is political, social, architectural or historical.
