London night and day : a guide to where the other books don't take you

2014
Book
This unusual and entertaining guide to the capital gives a snapshot of the best places to visit. Arranged by hour of the day, it takes the reader on a journey around 1950s London, from your morning walk to your visit to the Turkish Bath and late-night taxi home. Includes recommended restaurants (many of which still exist), the best stately homes to visit, a tour of the Thames and how to cope with the noise and dirt of a trip to the capital.
