London is falling down... September 20, 2008 Philip Walker (London - UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Loved this! A great reference to parts of London we see every day, but ignore so easily. One of the buildings I walk past going to work every day is in here, and I look at it now, and soak in the History. This is a great little book, if you love London and its history, you will really enjoy Derelict London.
Just brilliant September 8, 2008 gloucestershire girl (london) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a splendid book which is interesting, thought provoking and a wonderful guide to the decaying parts of our capital. The photographs are atmospheric, the stories enlightening and moving and I would recommend this book (and indeed the website of the same name) to anyone who has ever passed a derelict building and wondered what was there before or what the story of the place was. The author Paul is also a lovely guy whom I've had email chats with a few times now.
Fantastic little book! July 11, 2008 Claire Wilson (London, UK) 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
This book is fascinating, a great insight to history in our city that we might often miss. The photos are well taken. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
fascinating!! May 8, 2008 A. Hubbard (norfolk,england) 13 out of 14 found this review helpful
this is an absolute must for all fans of Paul Talling's website of the same name.It gives an insight into the lesser known side of London,from hospitals to pubs,left to decay or be demolished to make way for yet more luxury flats (rabbit hutches) or offices.Its very sad to see the old,beautiful buildings like the numourus public houses being demolished,its like pulling the heart out of London's history...................Buy this book its brilliant!!!!
Superb April 29, 2008 A. L. Rispoli (SW London) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
An excellent book, my only criticism being there is not enough of it!! The places are photographed beautifully, there is a full history of the buildings and to finish off with a section documenting some buildings that have been restored and renovated is pure class! This book does not disappoint, it is the most interesting book I have read in a long time!
