The streets of London resonate with secret stories, from East End lore to Cold War espionage, from tales of riots, rakes, brothels, anarchy and grisly murders, to Rolling Stones gigs, gangland drinking-dens, Orwell's Fitzrovia and Lenin's haunts.
Londoner Ed Glinert has walked the city from Limehouse to Lambeth, Whitehall to Whitechapel, unravelling its mysteries along the way. Here he uncovers the tales of the hidden metropolis - street by street, area by area and building by building. Now updated and expanded to include Stratford's Olympic Village, this book reveals London as you've never seen it before.
