Illustrated with a frontispiece and 54 plates of reproductions of evocative drawings of notable places in London by Joseph Pennell. Vivid descriptions and anecdotes concerning the city of London with details on its antiquities and rich history. London is a difficult city to get to know, hiding beauty in unlikely spots. Dark is a master in bringing out all the characteristics that make London a unique city. In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally smart, though faded to the spine and extremities. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean except for some offsetting to the free end papers and a scattering of spots to the first and last few pages. Some pages uncut. Very Good
