London is an ever-changing city, blink & one building disappears & another appears bigger, taller, shinier. This is a compilation of photos of now, this moment in time. Ten years from now, how many photos would be the same? This is a photographic moment of the here & now in London & you are invited in to share the moment. Yes, there are hundreds of pictures of the Royal Albert Hall, Trafalgar Square & Buckingham Palace but how many have a feature, an angle, an effect? Something unusual, unique, whilst staying true to the original image. Did you know there was a ship on top of Liberty`s? Or that there are three naked golden ladies leaping off the roof in Piccadilly? Use it to imagine you are in London from the comfort of your sofa, or on the train journey home from work. ...

Ranging from Somerset House to the Serpentine, Smithfield Market to Selfridges, Michael Foley leads us on a tour of London`s most popular landmarks. He shows us that while much of the city is transformed decade-by-decade, London is rooted in its most persistent features. While White City would be unrecognisable to a time-travelling Edwardian, the great memorials, palaces & churches are definitive
- & a century is nothing to the houses on Fleet Street that survived the Great Fire of 1666. Obvious patterns emerge
- while the traffic on the streets is increasingly relentless, the Thames, once clogged with trading ships, now tends towards the empty. & although the speed of new building work has only accelerated over the years, the twenty-first century pedestrian has a much greener
- & arguably safer
- journey ahead of her than those Edwardian predecessors. London Through Time is the ideal companion for a leisurely ramble around one of the most diverse, most venerated cities on Earth.

Following in the footsteps of J.B. Priestley, whose book English Journey told the tale of his 1934 voyage, Hunter Davies embarks upon an epic journey at the end of the century. He spends a year travelling from London to the Lake District, observing the people & places of England today & noting the mood of the English nation at the end of the millennium. It is also a journey into his own life, as he recalls incidents & people from his past. Davies is impressed by a sense of light & optimism encouraged by the many Lottery projects nearing completion, such as the Lowry Centre in Salford & the 2500 miles of public pathways being created by Sustrans. He visits two stately homes
- Chatsworth & Althorp, as well as Paul Mc Cartney's former more modern & humble council house in Liverpool. His journey takes him from a private party with Tony Blair in London to the Loweswater Show in the far north-western corner of Cumbria. This is where he & his wife spend half of each year, the clash between urban & rural life forming the heart of the book.
