THIS IS LONDON

This is a guided pictorial through London, its parks, its squares, its places, its river, a glimpse of its proper bankers and starched Nannies. This is the small of violets, the bracing warmth of four o'clock tea, the chaos of Piccadilly and the lure of the Tower. This is London, a city of history and civilization, a city of history and civilization, a city of nostalgia for all those whose native language is English. M. Sasek, with his daring sense of design and his unusual use of color, conjures up the spirit of London town in a book so vivid and inviting that readers of all ages will take refreshment in this invitation to a delightful journey. This is Paris will shortly appear.
