(Actually 112) 'secrets' of London, each with a page of text and a full page colour photo.
Borrowed from the library: I compliled a written list of 22 things I might feasibly visit some time. Others are interesting but perhaps more to look at if you happen to be passing than worthy of a special trip (certain notable shops, statues etc.)
Some are perhaps already pretty well known ; but generally a really useful, interesting book for anyone who's 'done' all the famous stuff and wants to branch out.
I am dead set on visiting Hampstead, the Hindu temple at Neasden and Eel Pie Island.
