Synopsis

This time-travellers guide takes the reader back to a London not entirely unlike ours, a city of drinking, dining, entertainment and shopping. And though many buildings have been obliterated by fire, Blitz and development, the street plan remains. Like any reliable guidebook, it provides information on when to visit, how to get there - the Gravesend voyage is very difficult and its length depends on the weather - where to stay and what to see.
