About this title

From the Author:

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight you are going to visit one of the world's most famous cities. Here you will see historic palaces, elegant hotels, and magnificent restaurants. If you're lucky, you may even see a corpse floating down the Thames. For tonight we shall visit:ALFRED HITCHCOCK'S LONDON

Now you can follow in the footsteps of the most famous film director of all time, from the corridors of Scotland Yard and the stalls of the Royal Albert Hall to the top of Tower Bridge and the dome of St Paul's Cathedral. There was a hardly a corner of London that Hitchcock didn't visit and they're all here--over 200 of them--from the site of his birth in 1899 to the cathedral where he was memorialized in 1980.

Review:

"Giblin's book on Hitchcock's London--and Hitchcock's England--promises to be a fascinating investigation by a true Anglophile of the director's literary sources and his imaginative treatment of reality." -- Ken Mogg, editor of the Hitchcock scholars' website, The MacGuffin
