Περιγραφή για No Free Parking: The Curious History of London's Monopoly Streets Nicholas Boys Smith John Blake Publishing Ltd

\'Highly entertaining\' - The Times\'A hymn book to the London street\' - TLSFrom the Roman marching along the ancient Old Kent Road to the rattling newspaper presses of Fleet Street, from Dickensian iron and fog to the neon lights of the twenty-first century, the game of Monopoly has painted London\'s story across cheerful coloured tiles. But those Monopoly streets live and breathe - they open up whole new ways of thinking about our history. The mobs have taken to our streets. The overlords have taken them back. Wars have spilled out into them. Lovers have snuck around them, and fires have raged through them. In a city of rags and riches, where folk hero Dick Whittington believed the streets were paved with gold, anything could happen - and everything has. You may think you know the history of London. You don\'t. Or at least, not entirely. This is the story of the capital as you\'ve never, quite, heard it before. Σελίδες: 304, Διαστάσεις: 12.9x12.9cm
