London: A Concise History
Condition remarks:
Condition: Good. Jacket: Worn/faded, no tears. Page Condition: Yellowed. Markings: Previous owner markings to FEP.
A richly illustrated work of British history, London: A Concise History chronicles the life and evolution of one of the world's great capital cities from its ancient Roman origins through to the modern era. Geoffrey Trease presents a compelling narrative that captures the city's turbulent political upheavals, architectural transformations, and the colourful cast of characters who shaped its identity across the centuries. Written with clarity and authority, the text is accompanied by 105 illustrations that bring London's storied past vividly to life, from medieval streetscapes to the grandeur of its iconic landmarks. Trease argues that to understand London is to understand the broader sweep of British civilisation itself, making this a rewarding read for historians and general readers alike.
