Book Synopsis A Short History of London by : Simon Jenkins
Download or read book A Short History of London written by Simon Jenkins and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Fascinating and timely. Required reading for every developer, planner or councillor who holds London in trust today' Griff Rhys Jones 'Accessible, clear and readable' Rowan Moore, The Observer ________________________ LONDON: a settlement founded by the Romans, occupied by the Saxons, conquered by the Danes and ruled by the Normans. This unremarkable place - not even included in the Domesday Book - became a medieval maze of alleys and courtyards, later to be chequered with grand estates of Georgian splendour. It swelled with industry and became the centre of the largest empire in history. And rising from the rubble of the Blitz, it is now one of the greatest cities in the world. From the prehistoric occupants of the Thames valley to the preoccupied commuters of today, Simon Jenkins brings together the key events, individuals and trends in London's history to create a matchless portrait of the capital. ________________________ 'A vivid and deeply well-informed account of London's history' Charles Saumarez Smith, Professor of Cultural History, Queen Mary University of London 'Extremely informative and witty' Roy Porter, author of London: A Social History on Landlords to London 'A short, invigorating gallop over two and a half thousand years' Scotsman on A Short History of Europe

Book Synopsis London Views for Isolation Shoes by : Philip Carey
Download or read book London Views for Isolation Shoes written by Philip Carey and published by Philip Carey. This book was released on 2015-02-22 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This portfolio of work called ‘Isolation Locations’ looks at how the characteristics of a defined location, (London), can be isolated by natural light to create new and compelling images. 9 locations were selected - representing the 9 letters of Isolation. Most of the images were taken at the beginning of the day or during the winter, with some being taken at night. Our brains and eyes used isolation to process the world we live in, which is why photographs need to isolate their subject and message in order to engage the viewer and trigger an emotional response. In photography the process of isolation is instant, understanding this is a journey. Copyright 2016 by Philip Carey - All rights reserved.

Book Synopsis The Agile London System by : Alfonso Romero Holmes
Download or read book The Agile London System written by Alfonso Romero Holmes and published by New In Chess. This book was released on 2016-10-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not difficult to understand why the London System is such a popular chess opening with club players all over the world. Against virtually every Black defence after 1.d4 it offers White an easy-to-learn and reliable set of lines with interesting choices between strategic or more aggressive approaches, while avoiding tons of opening theory. Lately an increasing number of Grandmasters such as Alexander Grischuk, Gata Kamsky, Baadur Jobava, Richard Rapport and even World Champion Magnus Carlsen have played the London System. In this light it is surprising that so little has been published about this fascinating universal weapon. GM Alfonso Romero and FM Oscar de Prado have now filled this gap. In The Agile London System they present both historical material and recent top-level examples to provide a comprehensive overview. Romero and De Prado explain the typical plans and tactics using illustrative games with clear verbal explanations, and provide lots of tactical and strategic exercises. The authors reveal the secrets behind sharp ideas such as the Barry Attack and the Jobava Attack and have added an exciting chapter on the hyper-aggressive Pereyra Attack, developed by the Argentinean master Manuel Pereyra Puebla.

Filled with roman roads, cliff-tops, follies, mountains, ancient castles, rolling forests and heart-stopping moments, you'll soon wonder how you chose walks, mini-breaks or spontaneous diversions without it.
