This book takes a journey through history, looking at some of the most significant buildings, as well as the people who have shaped this city.

Since the early days as rolling hills crisscrossed with streams, London has come a long way to be one of the most exciting and innovative cities in the world.

From the first Roman settlement 2000 years ago to the high tech and high rise buildings of today, the history of London is a story of experimentation, determination and triumph. A city at the cutting edge of style and fashion, rising from every fire, every attack, every setback.

The Architecture Lover's Guide to London takes a journey through history, looking at some of the most significant buildings, as well as the people who have shaped this city.
