London's Strangest Tales takes a walk on London's weirder side with an
absorbing collection of curious tales from one of the world's greatest
cities.
This fascinating book is packed with amazing things you didn't know
about Britain's capital, like the fact that it's still forbidden to run,
carry an umbrella or whistle in the Burlington Arcade, and the fat
lamppost at the corner of Trafalgar Square that is secretly a tiny
prison cell. And did you know that the entrance to Buckingham Palace you
see from the Mall is actually the back door and not the front? The
stories within these pages are bizarre, fascinating, hilarious and, most
importantly, true.
This brand new edition, redesigned in splendid hardback for 2018, is a
brilliant alternative guide to the city, whether you're a visitor, a
daily commuter or one of its 8 million inhabitants.
