Secret London - An Unusual Guide

Secret London - An Unusual Guide is the original and still the best of all the many alternative London guides: accept no imitation. Authors Rachel Howard and Bill Nash have prowled the city streets, seeking out the hidden, eccentric, and overlooked. Far from the crowds and the usual clichés, London still reserves any number of hidden treasures for those who know how to wander off the beaten track.

Rachel Howard is a journalist and copywriter who has lived in almost every borough in London. A regular contributor to Conde Nast Traveller, National Geographic Traveler, and The Guardian, Rachel writes mainly about travel, food, and the arts. She previously spent a decade writing speeches for the Greek foreign minister. But that’s another story. Bill Nash is an actor and writer, with family roots all across London. An obsession with the city’s corners is the foundation for his contribution to this book. He lives in Brixton with his family and an ineffective cat.
