Description
Intended for anyone who has an interest in London's past and will enjoy seeing its surviving monuments in a new light, this book offers a celebration of the capital's buildings and open spaces. It discusses the factors which have influenced the city's architectural heritage, from political and stylistic considerations to the personalities responsible for commissioning and designing, and the history of individual buildings is provided by extended captions to the photographs. Denise Silvester-Carr was a co-author of "The Black Plaque Guide to London" and Andrew Butler's photographic work has been used to illustrate many books, including "The Making of the English Landscape".
