The monuments of London are an incredibly vivid way of exploring England's capital city and its history. For example, the Albert Memorial is both a physical demonstration of one women’s grief for the loss of her husband and an embodiment of Victorian Imperial confidence and power. Like many statues in London, it also has a few stories to tell. It was painted black during World War I for the official reason that it might act as a navigational tool for German airships, but there is still suspicion that the painting of the monument had more to do with the Teutonic origins of the Prince Regent. With detailed maps and stunning photos, this handbook is a great way to uncover the many tales surrounding more than 250 of London’s monuments.

History

Fully revised and expanded, The London Market Guide tells shoppers all they need to know to explore the street markets. The book also lists all the city's best car trunk sales. First, this guide will get you there, with details of bus, train, or tube routes to each market. Full details of every market are offered, explaining what you can expect to find and when are the best times to visit. Honest reviews tell shoppers what to avoid—warning is given if a market is more tackfest than treasure chest. More than 140 cafés and restaurants are listed for shoppers to eat, drink, and take a break after a hard day€™s bargain hunting. Lastly, for those interested in seeing the market from the other side, details are given for every market reviewed on how to get a stall.

From Queen Boudicca's fight against the Romans to Nelson Mandela's struggle against apartheid, readers can walk among the statuary of the capital and bring history to life London has more than 300 monuments which are easily unnoticed but have fascinating tales to tell, and with detailed maps and stunning photos, this handbook is a great way to uncover the many tales surrounding them. Where else can visitors find a monument to an emasculated lion made from a mysterious ceramic or the figure of an 18th-century radical thinker who was hounded from his home by an angry mob? The monument to Quintin Hogg commemorates one of the country's great philanthropists who dedicated much of his life to teaching street children and was nearly murdered several times for his efforts. The less worthy figure of George IV has a much grander monument—which is not surprising as he paid for the monument himself using public funds. The good, the bad, the courageous, and the cowardly all have a permanent place on the streets of London.
