具体描述
Here are two thousand years of London’s history and folklore, its chroniclers and criminals and plain citizens, its food and drink and countless pleasures. Blackfriar’s and Charing Cross, Paddington and Bedlam. Westminster Abbey and St. Martin in the Fields. Cockneys and vagrants. Immigrants, peasants, and punks. The Plague, the Great Fire, the Blitz. London at all times of day and night, and in all kinds of weather. In well-chosen anecdotes, keen observations, and the words of hundreds of its citizens and visitors, Ackroyd reveals the ingenuity and grit and vitality of London. Through a unique thematic tour of the physical city and its inimitable soul, the city comes alive.

评分1652年，咖啡馆涌现； 1882年，出现有轨电车； 1897年，出现公共汽车； 1952年，伦敦雾霾。 传说London来自Llyndon，Llyn是溪畔，don是小镇，大都市曾是溪畔小镇，如大上海曾是小渔村。伦敦曾有很多治病灵泉，现已多被填塞，看来灵泉并不能治病，如北京满井村曾有许多四季甘甜...
评分 评分伦敦，起于英格兰平原之上，卧于泰晤士河之侧，大不列颠联合王国之首都也，欧罗巴最大之城市也，盎格鲁撒克逊人之老巢也。呜呼，伦敦即英国也，英国即伦敦也，故而有英伦之响称！ 在《伦敦传》开头，阿克罗伊德就开门见山地写道，“伦敦是一具人体……其头颅为耶稣基督，余下部...
