Philip Daviess best-selling Lost London 1870-1945 has been described as a publishing phenomenon. Opening windows on a vanished past it captivated modern audiences & was described by John Carey in The Sunday Times as a haunting portal into the bygone life of the capital. Like its predecessor Panoramas of Lost London reproduces historic photographs commissioned by London County Council
- many of them in the early days of photography
- to capture individual buildings & streets that along with their entire neighbourhood were on the threshold of redevelopment.

Changes in scale & cropping have have brought to light an astonishing depth of detail: haunting faces from the forgotten past live again hoardings & shopfronts reveal their wares while architectural details & textures leap into focus
- reinforcing the sense of shock & awe" that Marcus Binney identified when reviewing Lost London in The Times. The result is a series of breathtaking visual revelations."
