Not that the book shirks some of the suburban ideal's less happy offspring. Herein you will also find Becontree, Barking, Beckton, and Broadwater Farm--along with lots of other ugly, tedious, remote, monotonous, and often crime-ridden hellholes. However, the general tenor of this marvelous, eye-opening volume is definitely upbeat. So much so, in fact, that as you idle through its comprehensive gazetteer, drool at its descriptions of bosky Georgian Barnsbury, and lap up its idyllic pictures of Betjeman's Metroland and John Nash's rus in urbo, you may even want to pack up your bags and move to Morden. Maybe. --Sean Thomas
