London - The Story of a Great City encapsulates between its pages the extraordinary history of the city: the rise of London from a remote outpost of Rome’s northern empire and the growth of trade that sent money and ships to all corners of the globe, the roll call of famous Londoners, the strength of its institutions - not least its parliamentary system, the endurance of the capital in the face of war and disaster, its innovations, expertise, enterprise and pleasure, and the image it gives the world of a tolerant, successful, multi-cultural and vibrant place in which to live, work or visit.

Produced in conjunction with the Museum of London, full with lavish illustrations and images of memorabilia from their archives, London - The Story of a Great City illuminates the history of this city of cities through artefacts, documents, maps, paintings and photographs.
