The seminal & pioneering London Underground is more than a mass transportation network – it is a style icon, its history involving some of the most important architects & artists of their time.

Exploring Frank Pick’s vision through the development of Metroland to Holden’s innovative designs, David Long expertly weaves the story of the Underground – its abundance of characters (some good, some not so good), design firsts & brand identity – with Jane Magarigal’s atmospheric photography.

From suburban expansion to Blitz bombings & Soviet adulation, this book celebrates what remains a magnificent engineering & aesthetic achievement while providing an affectionate if slightly elegiac portrait of a London which is now gone for good.
