London Plaques - Derek Sumeray & John Sheppard
		London’s buildings are dotted with commemorative plaques. Many are the famous blue plaques, indicating where a famous person was born, lived, stayed, or if a significant event took place there, or an earlier use of the site. This book is a comprehensive gazetteer of all of London’s plaques. Using Derek Sumeray’s classic book as a basis, this thoroughly revised new edition arranges plaques alphabetically by area, providing a text that is linked to London’s geography and, therefore, of greater use to a resident or visitor wanting to explore the famous people and events commemorated in that area.
