| book description |

Discover the nationâ€™s capital from behind the scenes. Imagine sitting across from a 13-year-old Princess Elizabeth on the District Line, or being overtaken by Muhammad Ali on his morning run through Hyde Park. London in Photos documents a rapidly changing society from the funeral of King Edward VII in 1910 through to the birth of the new century. Imagine sitting across from a 13-year-old Princess Elizabeth on the District Line, or being overtaken by Muhammad Ali on his morning run through Hyde Park. This collection of photographs takes a deep dive into The Times archives, showcasing 100 images taken by photojournalists as they sought â€“ or stumbled upon â€“ the people and events that shaped our cultural history. The city itself stands not as a backdrop in these photographs, but as a vibrant, living community that takes centre stage. View the familiar landscapes of Big Ben, Battersea Power Station, Wembley Stadium and Piccadilly Circus from unusual and rarely seen perspectives, meet famous figures such as Queen Elizabeth II, the Krays, Elizabeth Taylor and David Bowie on trains, at boxing matches and even in their living rooms. Experience the trials of weather and war alongside normal Londoners going about their days, and celebrate peace, coronations and heatwaves with them. This is the story of a city and the people and moments that made it great.
