Cloth. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Slight foxing to end inside covers. Sunned spine to cloth. No date but previous owners name and date to inside cover is dated 1945. Pink cloth with red lettering. The purpose of this book is to gather into one volume a history of the whole of the London area and its people, its literary and its historical association. It traces the growth of the London of today from the ancient settlements about Ludgate Hill and Thorney, showing how they developed civic institutions and, reaching our to the villages around, joined them to make the great City of our own day. The story gathers up the romance of the City, the struggle for civic freedom, the influence of the Church, the Inns of Court, and the City Fathers. It deals not only with these, but with the daily life of the people, their work and their play, the great names, and the stories of the humble men who also played their part in the making of the City - everything which went to make up the noble heritage of the London today. It tells, too, of the Londoners of literature, none the less real because they live only in books. Its scope is wider than this, however, just as London itself is wider, for it takes in the whole area of the modern County of London and tells something of the past of the districts, now the Metropolitan Boroughs, which almost within living memory were pleasant little country villages separated from the centre by country lanes and green fields. In some, much of that country aspect remains; in most there is yet the old church. some trace of the village green, some group of elms or a few old houses; in all are stories of the past.
