Riassunto:

In response to requests from the readers of the Islington Gazette these are the articles (expanded and updated) commissioned by the paper to celebrate the Millennium. They tell the eccentric, unconventional, fascinating history of the borough from the days when elephants roamed around what is now Kings Cross, when drovers crowded into The Old Red Lion and the Angel Inn, to the Islington of today. This book brings together the highlights of Islington's past and explains what it is that made and still makes Islington so special.
