London, past and present : its history, associations, and traditions

Published in 1891 in three volumes, this is a fascinating topographical dictionary covering a thousand years of history. Many of London's historic streets and buildings were being redeveloped during the rapid urban expansion of the Victorian period, and Wheatley mines historical, literary and architectural sources to preserve their memory.
