Love London, love history, love walking? Then you need this book. It’s your essential guide to the capital and its past. In fifteen walks, Tim Potter takes you through 2,000 years of London’s history from the Romans to the Shard. Each walk explores a particular period in London’s tumultuous history with chapters including Londinium, Medieval London, the Great Fire of 1666, nineteenth-century East End, the Bloomsbury Set, and twenty-first-century London.
In an introduction to each walk, Tim describes the main features and dominating personalities of the time. He then guides you on a short walk where you discover the places that have shaped London’s history. You will follow in the footsteps of great writers, thinkers, and politicians who have made London their home: Elizabeth I, Shakespeare, Pepys, Dr Johnson, Prince Albert, Dickens, Lenin, and Virginia Woolf all make an appearance in these pages. You’ll see wonderful views and historic buildings but also the hidden corners of the city where the memories of ordinary people, living through tumultuous times, still linger.
Tim Potter is a proud Londoner, born and bred. After studying politics and history at the London School of Economics, he spent his working life in education. Since retiring, he has lectured on London’s history to many different groups and regularly leads walks across the capital for Londoners and visitors alike. He can be contacted at timpotter53 gmail.com.
