Lamb's London
Inspired by Mick Herron's 'Slough House' novels and Apple TV's Slow Horses, our new map and guide dives into the murky waters of jaded spy Jackson Lamb and his retinue of MI5 cast-offs. The London of Slow Horses is more than just a backdrop; at once grim and flash, oppressively surveilled and unknowably huge, the city is an integral part of Herron's stories. Lamb's London charts the real places used in both the books and TV show: the rundown parade of shops in Barbican in which Slough House squats; the bench by the Thames where Lamb and Diana Taverner hold secret meetings; Lamb's favourite Chinese restaurant; the Marylebone cafe the opposition uses for dead drops, the hidden hideaways and pubs to which Cartwright, Standish, Ho and co. retreat to drown their sorrows. Lamb's London is an essential addition to the library of every Mick Herron fan, and for casual viewers it provides a thrilling real-life link to the most exciting and original spy drama of our time.
Drawing Complete Question & Answer Handbook
'Every one of us knows the moment when the simple act of putting one foot in front of another stops being a method of propulsion and becomes an adventure.' In this hilarious and heart-warming collection of essays, writer and broadcaster Stuart Maconie reflects on a life spent exploring the British countryside on foot. From the splendour of the Pennines and the Lake District to the drama of the Dorset coast; from the canals of the Midlands to wildest Scotland, this book is an attempt to explain a passion for walking and the delights it can bring. Never Mind the Quantocks features over 50 insightful, witty and entertaining articles, including festive walks, Lakeland favourites and pub treks. Culled from his monthly column in Country Walking magazine, this collection is full of the beautiful places, magical moments and wonderful characters that Stuart has encountered on his travels. It describes such intrepid adventures as taking on the famous 'Wainwright' Fells of the Lake District, walking Hadrian's Wall with colleague Mark Radcliffe, and why the most important things to carry in a rucksack are a transistor radio and a small bottle of wine.
Journeys in Industrious England
With a good horse, a man could ride 50 miles in a day. Thomas Baskervillle can be believed: he rode hundreds of miles across many English counties in the later seventeenth century, and recorded where he went and what he observed. Every few years he set off on a journey; ten journeys and some shorter expeditions were written up, but not published, even in part, for 200 years. Unvarnished and frank, his writing reveals his boundless curiosity about everyday working life in town and countryside. Baskerville's other writings were varied in style and subject matter. He described the course of some local rivers in verse, and copied out a ballad about St Winnifred. He recorded executions of Royalists and Parliamentarians and compiled a history of the Oxford colleges, incidentally including his experience in Barbados. He composed an account of his family and their relations. He collected the names of taverns in and around London. This book is a fascinating account of England seen through the eyes of an alert and cheerful man in the thirty years following the execution of Charles I.
Welcome to New London
Iain Sinclair has described Welcome to New London as, "An invaluable and informed super-tour by the Cobbett of YouTube. As immediately readable and engrossing as a Rogers film." After the 2012 Olympics London once again entered a period of radical change, one that some people came to see as a battle for the very soul of one of the greatest cities in the world. John Rogers embarked on a series of journeys and encounters in a quest to understand what was going on. In 'Welcome to New London' John Rogers invites us to join him on a captivating voyage through the ever-changing landscapes and communities of this iconic city. As a follow-up to 'This Other London, ' 'Welcome to New London' continues Rogers' exploration of the city from a unique perspective. The story begins in 2013 as the Olympic village in Stratford transitioned to become a new permanent settlement, and the Stratford City plan became a reality. This excursion sparks an exploration of the Olympic Park and its surrounding areas, where a wave of development is reshaping the Lower Lea Valley. The narrative seamlessly weaves through various facets of London's transformation, from the Focus E15 Mothers' occupation of homes on Carpenters Estate, a poignant symbol of the housing crisis, to the global attention garnered by campaigns like Save Soho and Save Tin Pan Alley. The book also chronicles the author's involvement in efforts to help residents of the Sweets Way Estate and other housing campaigns, offering readers an intimate look at the human stories behind London's changing landscape. Intriguingly, the Rogers delves into the city's ancient history following a chance conversation with a Pearly Punk King on the rooftop of the old Foyles building. This encounter takes him through Epping Forest to the prehistory of London in the Upper Lea Valley, unearthing Bronze Age burial mounds and their significance in understanding London's historical roots and its enduring connection to its past. Rogers embarks on a series of walks with acclaimed writer Iain Sinclair, providing a thought-provoking commentary on London's future. And then somehow the United Nations sent him to Peckham to explore the concept of the 'Open City, ' tying together the book's themes and returning to the Olympic Park as a focal point. "Welcome to New London" is not just a book about a city; it's a vivid, personal account of a city in flux, where the author's passion for exploration and his commitment to bearing witness to change converge. With its richly detailed chapters and thought-provoking commentary, this book is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the dynamic and ever-evolving nature of one of the world's greatest cities.
