This manual, for those living in or visiting London, contains tips, tricks and know-how to smooth the path through the city. There is practical advice from finding the right bank, making sense of the transport systems and finding a family-run hotel to taking the best guided tour and explaining who's who in the royal family. The author gives details of theatres, concert halls and night spots, from West End shows to jazz music in pubs. She gives advice on where to eat and drink, shopping, finding a quiet corner and how to make the best of a rain-drenched fortnight. To explore the history of London, the author has devised 12 walks which tell the story of London's growth, taking the reader through some of the streets, great museums, forgotten picturesque corners and London's parks and squares. Louise Nicholson has written on the arts for various national newspapers and is the author of "India in Luxury: A Practical Guide for the Discerning Traveller". She writes with the benefit of a decade of living in London and her book includes many personal insights.
