LONDON IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY.
By SIR WALTER BESANT.
With many Illustrations from Contemporary Prints and a Map.
Some Press Opinions.
"To praise this book were superfluous. Sir Walter was ideally suited for the task which he set himself. He was an antiquarian, but not a Dryasdust; he had the topographical sense, but he spared us measurements; he was pleasantly discursive; if he moralized he was never tedious; he had the novelist's eye for the romantic. Above all, he loved and reverenced London. Though only a Londoner by adoption, he bestowed upon the capital a more than filial regard. Besant is the nineteenth-century Stow and something more.... This remarkable volume."--Daily Telegraph.
"Turn where you will in his pages you get some interesting glimpse which opens up the past and illumines the present."--Contemporary Review.
