It records the history of its institutions, streets and buildings, people and events. This major work, massive in scope and fascinating in detail, has been compiled under the editorship of the historian and biographer Christopher Hibbert and the architectural bookseller and authority on London's history, Ben Weinreb. The Encyclopaedia comprises some 5000 entries, organised alphabetically, cross~referenced and supported by two large indexes, one of people, one general, and illustrated by over 500 drawings, prints and photographs. Everything is documented, vanished or still extant, that is important in the history and culture of England's capital from its first settlement to the present day. The account of streets and buildings and events is also the story of the people who have lived in or through them, so that interspersed between the facts and dates there spring to life the men and women whose wit or wisdom, triumph or tragedy, transcends the sequence of events and reminds us of London past and of the spirit of their age. We are reminded 'that in this court did Goldsmith walk' or 'on that spot a maypole stood', or here, beneath the traffic, could once be heard on cobbled stones the trundle of a hangman's cart. Scholarly yet highly readable, The London Encyclopaedia is essential for the historian; and an endless source of absorbing information for the general reader interested in London and its history.…
