Synopsis
Its pages packed with comic pictures, wacky captions and a thread of narrative, Richard Brassey tells the story of London from Roman times to the present day, with lots of locations and lots of stories, characters and quirky details. His idiosyncratic approach, terrifically appealing to children, is a brilliant way to bring London's history to life. With surprisingly little competition on the market, this is a book that should sell year in and year out a perfect buy for tourists and for schools.
