London's many diverse neighborhoods feature a wide range of buildings old and new, from theatres, cathedrals, and palaces to townhouses, hotels, and clubs. Both the writer and the photographer are London natives who know every fascinating corner of this rambling city, and their insight and vision inform every page. Each featured building is accompanied by informative text discussing its history and significance, along with addresses, dates, and architectural information.
