In 170 stunning, full-colour images, this book captures over 100 of London's best-known drinking places. From oak-beamed, 16th-century taverns - often favoured meeting places for smuggler and villains - the elaborate gin palaces of the Victorian age, London's rich cultural heritage is revealed from a new and dynamic perspective.
The book's specially commissioned photographs are accompanied by a fascinating history of each pub's architectural evolution, changing role through the centuries and famous - and occasionally infamous - patrons. Practical information on pubs' locations, opening hours and food and drink selections is also included.
