A long, meandering dive into the history of victorian London, with some truly fascinating pitstops along the way. Who knew sewers could be so interesting?
The type of book to pick up and read in fits and starts, perfect for whilling away a spare hour every week. I was enthralled from the beginning and found the content easy to read and easier to enjoy, with none of the heavy wordiness common in similar nonfiction. It's incredibly well written and I can't wait to read the author's other works.
