Reseña:
In 1880 London was already the largest city in the world. Over the course of the next century its population grew rapidly to reach over 7 million by 1914. It was also the wealthiest city, a major manufacturing, services and financial centre and the first city to have extensive networks of suburbs connected to the centre by public transport systems. This fascinating history will appeal to wide audience from amateur to specialist interests in economics, history, urban studies and geography. Those whose interest is in understanding the development of London are given new insights into a key period in the formation of the modern city.
