'Fascinating and timely. Required reading for every developer, planner or councillor who holds London in trust today' Griff Rhys Jones
'Accessible, clear and readable' Rowan Moore, The Observer
________________________
LONDON: a settlement founded by the Romans, occupied by the Saxons, conquered by the Danes and ruled by the Normans.
This unremarkable place - not even included in the Domesday Book - became a medieval maze of alleys and courtyards, later to be chequered with grand estates of Georgian splendour. It swelled with industry and became the centre of the largest empire in history. And rising from the rubble of the Blitz, it is now one of the greatest cities in the world.
