Book Description
Excerpt from Tales of Bohemia, Taverns, and the Underworld: Stories and Sketches of People Famous, Infamous, and Obscure This is a collection of yams from real life: yams told on that undefined borderland known as Bohemia; in the bars of town and country inns, and around those obscure sections of British and cosmopolitan capitals collectively and rather vaguely termed "The Underworld." They are stories retailed by men and women who lounge about to pass their leisure hours, watching life go by; tales of famous people related by onlookers less famous; sketches of real life as it presents itself in the raw, in all its ungarnished drama, pathos, and humour; incidents knocked up against while travelling through Europe; yams of behind the scenes - Paris, London, Berlin, Leipzig, Brussels, Naples, Rome, and Monte Carlo. This collection is intended to be neither particularly clever nor particularly profound, but merely a realistic portrait of a certain aspect of life drawn for the scrutiny of those people who have the breadth of view to interest themselves in things alien to their own sphere. In fiction, humanity is, of necessity, usually retouched. In literature-proper, books are generally written with a purpose - social, acquisitive, moral, reformative. This is only a heterogeneous collection of yams picked up by the wayside of life. As such, and pretending to no other qualities, let it take its chance, as real life takes its chance, incomprehensible, illogical, and elemental as many of its stories are. The author is simply recording, as faithfully as he may, some of those unrehearsed plays which enact themselves behind the arena of that circus: the everyday world.

Book Description
Jerry White's London in the Twentieth Century, Winner of the Wolfson Prize, is a masterful account of the city’s most tumultuous century by its leading expert. In 1901 no other city matched London in size, wealth and grandeur. Yet it was also a city where poverty and disease were rife. For its inhabitants, such contradictions and diversity were the defining experience of the next century of dazzling change. In the worlds of work and popular culture, politics and crime, through war, immigration and sexual revolution, Jerry White’s richly detailed and captivating history shows how the city shaped their lives and how it in turn was shaped by them.
