| Publisher Description: In this epic volume, renowned photographer Marc Hoberman presents London in a way never seen before Through a visual journey of over 280 large-scale color photographs, London and its surrounds is showcased as it really is: towering landmarks fill the book s pages, below them London s life-blood - it s people satiate the city s streets. Beefeaters, Camden Town punks, bobby s-on-the-beat, they re all here but so are the everyday Londoners that make up the city s true character - tourists scrunching their mouths at tube maps, public schoolboys with disheveled uniforms/perfect hair, harried crowds on Christmas-time Oxford Street and a quick cell phone text while queuing for a red telephone box. Complemented by dramatic double-page aerial photographs and text by award-winning author John Andrew, LONDON is a true homage to the world s capital and sets a new benchmark for the genre. London Deluxe Edition is limited to 250 copies internationally and includes a collectible limited edition signed and numbered photographic print, certificate and luxury clamshell casing. " |
