Summary:"This spectacular book reproduces historic photographs commissioned by the London County Council--many of them in the early days of photography--to capture individual buildings and streets that, along with entire neighbourhoods, were on the threshold of redevelopment. Enlarging over 180 of the photographs found in Lost London and with more than 100 previously unseen images, this new larger, landscape-format book provides readers with a wealth of hidden detail in these historic pictures..."--Jacket.
