Summary: A guide to the not so obvious side of London
Comment: Fascinating guidebook with detailed walks of neighborhoods, some familiar, others not. But even the familiar in a city as old and complex as London has a hidden subtext. This book does much to unveil the the lesser known aspects with excellent descriptions, detailed maps and some interesting photos.
Even the most familiar tourist haunts such as Westminster and St. James have some hidden gems that are covered.
Very cool book to enhance your trip to London .

Summary: guidebook to london's secrets
Comment: I love this book! It has detailed instructions to find (and history of) little known spots in London that are marvelous. There are several color pictures and hand-drawn maps to help guide you on your walk. Some of the fascinating bits of London that you can track down with this book are the rooftop gardens in Kensington, the underground tube stations that are no longer used and the rivers that have been tamed and paved over but still peek out here and there.
Even long-time residents will find new insight into their favorite city. Every time I go to London I search out one thing from this book and I'm always glad I did. For tourists, if you bring this book and an A-Z, and a copy of the latest Fodor's or Eyewitness, you won't want for anything else.
