Paul Knox presents a narrative history of London through the lens of twenty-five significant structures that define the city's evolving character. Spanning from the refined symmetry of Georgian townhouses to the imposing glass silhouette of the Shard, the book examines how these buildings reflect the social, political, and economic shifts of the capital. This study provides a comprehensive look at the built environment as a testament to London's enduring transformation over several centuries.
