What is it?

Described as ‘the best book about London in at least a decade’ (Londonist.com), Craig Taylor’s Londoners gives voice to a rich mix of the capital’s inhabitants, from hedge fund managers to cabbies, beekeepers to tube announcers.  Craig will reveal what it is like to listen to the countless and vivid tales of the city, and what they can tell us about the metropolis that is London today.
