具體描述
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.

評分（刊于《凤凰都市》杂志2016年8月号） 为伟大城市立传从来不是一件容易的事。英国伦敦堪称“城市中的城市”，它不仅有光荣的历史，经历过时代的洗礼，也孕育了一整套现代城市建设和管理的思维及方法。这样首屈一指的城市，当今的“全球城市”之一，创造出的文化也是无数人的精...
評分《伦敦传》！捧在手里很重很重，六百多页，打算用4-5天的时间啃掉。一口气读了近二百页，对远古、中世纪的伦敦有了进一步的了解，原来伦敦所处的地方在人类新时期时代后期就已有，从伦敦城的地下和砖上还能看到远古时候的海洋痕迹，甚至还有猛犸象的遗迹，太让人吃惊和开眼界了...
