Alec Forshaw's latest volume covers the troubled decade of 1980s London, the Thatcher years, a time of political and civil unrest and protest, deregulation and privatisation, a period when London underwent changes that would shape its development through to the present day. This is not, however, a formal or academic history, but an idiosyncratic and personal account, told with a light and sometimes humorous touch. Exploring diverse aspects of London's rich and varied make-up, Alec Forshaw provides an enthralling and evocative picture of the capital in those turbulent times.
