Leo Hollis will take you on a kaleidoscopic and unexpected history of one of the world's most enigmatic cities - London.
Leo Hollis will take you on a kaleidoscopic and unexpected history of one of the world's most enigmatic cities - London. From its mythic origins to the glittering towers of the contemporary financial capital, The Stones of London tells the story of twelve London buildings, from the Roman forum to the Gherkin, Regent Street to the East End, the Houses of Parliament to Greenwich Palace, and reveals how London's buildings are testament to the richness of its past.
Leo Hollis is the author of Phoenix: The Men Who Made Modern London and The Stones of London: A History in Twelve Buildings, which was described by the Sunday Times as "an original perspective on London's complex history".
