Daily Telegraph .-" Few of us would like to be subjected to a detailed cross-examination as to our knowledge of these contents, or could hope to answer with credit. Yet they are all easily accessible, and they are all, as Mr. Bell's fascinating pages show, of the greatest interest. Mr. Bell's volume ought to be immensely popular with those Londoners who know that there is romance all about them in old London but want to be guided to the spots where it lies hidden. They will look far for a better informed guide than Mr. Bell, and further still for one who has such skill in telling his tale." Westminster Gazette .-" Full of interest and novelty-Mr. Bell's book deals with just the things that seem to matter. He has handled his subjects as well as he has selected them; and this is one more 'London' book for which I am grateful." Daily Express .-" This delightful volume. I cheerfully admit that, in common with the born-bred Londoner, Mr. Bell's book tells me much that I ought to have known years ago." Referee .-" Mr. Bell discourses very pleasantly on the historic buildings, streets, and relics with which our wonderful city is replete, and of which, alas! so many of us are unaware. This charming book is full of interest from start to finish." Pall Mall Gazette .-" Mr. Bell writes so delightfully-there are many new lights on old things-of all these things Mr. Bell has something to say which is of value or interest." Graphic .-"Mr. Bell treats attractively of little-known things London has in its keeping."
