Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Like all the great historic cities of Europe, London appears to us solid and unchanging. We feel that we can still explore the London of Dickens, Dr. Johnson, Defoe, Wren and even Shakespeare. The very names St Paul's, Smithfield, Charing Cross, St James's, seem to link us with those past eras. But this solidity is an illusion, for throughout its long history London has been changing and evolving. It has been renewing or replacing the streets and buildings at its heart and has been spreading inexorably outwards. This process is vividly illustrated by maps of London that have been drawn and published over the past 500 years; and this book offers a magnificent panorama of London's history by focusing on its maps. The link between London and Westminster; the devastation of the Great Fire; the emergence of the West End as a place of fashion; the opening of the Royal Parks; the building of the docks; the coming of the railway age; the impact of World Wars - all these processes and many more are evident in these historic maps. Approximately 200 important maps from the mid-sixteenth century to the present day are illustrated and discussed. For all those who know London, but who wish to look behind the modern facade, "London, A Life in Maps" should prove irresistible, highlighting the challenge of predicting London's future development and character. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 4to (28.5 cm), 208 pp. Publisher's laminated wrappers (wrappers slightly frayed at extremities). In this engaging study, acclaimed historian Peter Whitfield uncovers a wealth of surprising truths and forgotten details hidden within the historic maps of London. Examining nearly 200 maps spanning the last 500 years, Whitfield illustrates the dramatic transformations of the city's streets, open spaces, and architecture. Through a vibrant array of cartographic illustrations, the maps trace London's turbulent history, from the devastation of the Great Fire to the lasting scars of the World Wars, and the rise of the West End as a hub of fashion and culture. Reading historic sketches and detailed plans as biographical keys to this sprawling metropolis, Whitfield offers fascinating insights into the city of black cabs and red double-deckers. With vivid prose and sharp analysis, he reveals the subtle interplay of social history, urban planning, and design captured in the ever-evolving cartography of London. …
