Why read it?
1 author picked Lost London as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This fascinating doorstopper of a book contains more than 500 photographs of buildings that have long since disappeared from London’s streets. It provides a tantalising glimpse of the city that our ancestors knew and carries me off on a time travelling adventure every time I look through it.
From Fiona's list on Victorian London.
