## Description

Explore London at the close of the 16th century – a city of courtiers, cut-throats, merchants, beggars, lawyers, dramatists, apprentices and adventurers. See the sights from Whitehall to Westminster Abbey, and visit bustling Bankside, noted for its breweries, bear-baiting and brothels. This intriguingly addictive guide, based on the works of Tudor authors and contemporary ephemera, provides an insider’s view of Elizabethan London, Europe’s ‘City of the Future’.
