London from Punk to Blair by Joe Kerr

From galleries to clubs, pubs to Tube stations, crap weather to pigeon crap, London from Punk to Blair is a brilliant anthology of personal and subjective readings of the capital since the late 1970s, which takes on London like no other book has before.
'Full of insight into the diverse experiences that constitute the recent history of London' - Architects' Journal 'Let it do as it promises and open your eyes to parts of the city you have never seen before.' - Diplomat Magazine 'A powerful evocation of changing London through the past 25 years. Co-editor Joe Kerr is a great writer ... there is plenty for every taste. The fun is in the discovery of new and rediscovery of old alike.' - Building Design
