Peter Ackroyd's knowledge and enthusiasm for London has led to this 'meisterwork'. He is a great historian and his style is informative and knowledgeable without condescencion. All his factual works are little masterpieces in my opinion. Esssential reading for any fan of London and it's history. As with so much in life, you need to understand the past to tounderstand the present.
