Robert S. Kane, like no other author, is at his best as he explores London at its best. From William the Conquerer's Tower of London to history-laden Westminster Abbey, follow Kane as he profiles today's London, viewing the British Museum's Rosetta Stone and debate in Parliament, through to Buckingham Palace's Changing of the Guard and the treasures of surrounding stately homes. Kane evaluates, with his celebrated candor, 100 restaurants, tea spots, and pubs - luxury through budget - as well as London's varied hotel accomodations in the same categories. To make the most of your trip, Kane takes you inside the 30 richest museums - Victoria and Albert through Tate Gallery - and provides you with the dozen best day-excusions and scores of shops and boutiques; just what you need to make your trip to London smashing!
