Description
W. Macqueen Pope tells the story of Piccadilly Circus-‘the centre of the world’-and the streets which radiate from it: Regent Street, Shaftesbury Avenue, Coventry Street. The Haymarket, Lower Regent Street-and the magic mile of Piccadilly itself. He is concerned less with the buildings than the way in which the streets came into being, the people who lived in them, the throngs who passed, and how they altered down the years. It is a pageant of London and Londoners
