The Architecture Lover's Guide to London

A look at key structures that exemplify the style of the time or have a significance for London—from ancient Roman rule to the 21st century. Since the early days as rolling hills crisscrossed with streams, London has come a long way to be one of the most exciting and innovative cities in the world. From the first Roman settlement 2000 years ago to the high tech and high rise buildings of today, the history of London is a story of experimentation, determination and triumph. A city at the cutting edge of style and fashion, rising from every fire, every attack, every setback. The Architecture Lover's Guide to London takes a journey through history, looking at some of the most significant buildings, as well as the people who have shaped this city. "If you're planning on doing a sightseeing tour of London this little book will give you information you might not get from the London tour guides, and you can strike out on your own quite easily to explore some of the most iconic buildings in London and discover the history of one of the oldest cities in the UK, and the men and women behind some of the architecture as well." —Tudor Blogger
