This is a history of the ideas that shaped not only London, but Manchester, Glasgow, Liverpool, Leeds, Birmingham, Sheffield & other power-houses of 19th-century Britain. It charts the controversies & visions that fostered Britain`s greatest civic renaissance. Tristram Hunt explores the horrors of the Victorian city, as seen by Dickens, Engels & Carlyle; the influence of the medieval Gothic ideal of faith, community & order espoused by Pugin & Ruskin; the pride in self-government, identified with the Saxons as opposed to the Normans; the identification with the city republics of the Italian renaissance ` commerce, trade & patronage; the change from the civic to the municipal, & greater powers over health, education & housing; & finally at the end of the century, the retreat from the urban to the rural ideal, led by William Morris & the garden-city movement of Ebenezer Howard. ...

The City of London is still confined to a square-mile enclave, as it was when its residents crossed the river to see Shakespeare`s newest plays in Southwark. At that time, up the river there was another city
- Westminster, seat of the Royal Court, the Law Courts & Parliament
- but within 200 years the two settlements had fused, making London the largest city on earth, the first to reach a population of one million. In the nineteenth century, London`s population grew to six million & the building boom began. Poorer people & dirty industries congregated in the east; the better-off lived & worked in the west. The Victorians built breathtaking edifices, the crown jewel of which was the new Houses of Parliament. After the destruction of the Second World War, the post-war era saw the arrival of the modern movement & the wholesale use of poured concrete, glass & steel. Now, in the twenty-first century, London`s architecture is as vibrant as ever
- the last ten years have seen the building of many of London`s greatest landmarks, including the Swiss Re headquarters & the London Eye.” Building London” is a visual record of that remarkable story, detailing how the city was built & introducing the great architects & engineers. It contains rare images from the earliest days of photography, as well as evocative photographs from the last 100 years, ensuring all of London`s iconic buildings are featured.
