London : The Biography

I am currently reading a book that is developing into one of the best radiography of a city I've ever come across. It's called simply London: The Biography. An 800 pages long bible of what London used to be from its beginnings to the modern times. The author , Peter Ackroyd , manages to capture every aspect of the city's furious history, making you part of the birth of this capital, the rise and the spectacular display of its beauty.

The book is a must for every one who wants to understand London much deeper than the DK travel guide.
