The City Companion

by Martin Mason, Malcolm Sanders

This book combines distinctive drawings with wonderful calligraphy prepared by the authors to create a superb record of London, founded by the Romans in the first century AD. The city has become a major financial center, and as such must thrive and move with the times, but not without remembering its glorious past. A proper balance between the old and new is vital if London is to retain more than just its famous street names and a handful of celebrated monuments.
