An invitation and guide to the best homes in London, from Ben Franklin's to Sherlock Holmes'
London has an amazing range of houses regularly open to the public, and this book covers them all. Architects from Robert Adam to Ernö Goldfinger are represented. In social terms, the spectrum runs from the destitute who filled the workhouse now known as Vestry House in Walthamstow, to aristocrats and royalty busily building and coupling in Kensington and Twickenham. With architectural details, social history, biographies, and practical information, this book provides everything visitors need to plan a trip back through the centuries.
