The second in Miroslav Šašek's series of illustrated city guides whisks us away to London, a British metropolis that, since Roman times, has thrummed as a marketplace bustling with shops and traders. Now, it pulses as the beating heart of banking and business, teeming with a vibrant tapestry of nationalities. Strolling through London with Šašek as our guide is an adventure to this day – from the stoic faces of City traders to street performers, the iconic taxis and buses, guardsmen, Hyde Park orators, peeks into museum exhibits, Christopher Wren's architectural marvels, and a cast of characters in all manner of attire, from wigs to plumed hats, war veterans to milkmen, and the ever-present tourists. London is a city forever on the move, yet it remains steadfastly regal. And Šašek, with a twinkle in his eye, concludes, \"And at the very end of our picture book on London, we must pay homage to one loyal companion who is ever at our side—the umbrella.\" Though London has evolved, Šašek's ability to unveil the city's true essence ensures his guide remains timeless, packed with delightful insights that transcend the digital clutter. It's no wonder the English version, This is London, is heralded as a \"British Classic\" in bookshops across the city, a testament to Šašek's initial publishing home in London.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Magic Bookshelf","offers":[{"title":"6 years or older \/ ENG- English","offer_id":57326313898361,"sku":null,"price":7.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0952\/0814\/5273\/files\/IMG_8414.png?v=1779631357","url":"https:\/\/magic-bookshelf.com\/products\/this-is-london","provider":"Magic Bookshelf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
