London: A History is a beautifully illustrated gift book, charting the history of England’s largest city. Written by a graduate of the Royal College of Art, young readers will explore the rich history and culture of London, with gorgeous art paired with poems, quotes and historical accounts.
From pre-history to the present day, learn about the lives of everyday people and famous events in a beautiful and fascinating compendium.
London is a city made of up 32 boroughs, which are more like villages. This does not include the Cities of Westminster and the City of London (the financial district).
Home to around 8 million people, London is officially classed as a city forest, as there are as many trees as people, and it is therefore one of the world’s greenest cities, also with one of the best public transport systems on earth.
Green London is a walker’s guide to explore natural spaces in this beautifully illustrated guide of green walkways that link via old railway tracks, towpaths and riverside walks.
Each of the 14 walks features well-known landmarks, historical events from nearby, types of trees and wildlife en-route, sections of the Capital Ring and underground links. Includes distances.
