The History of London

The unabridged classic on MP3 audio, narrated by Amy von Lecteur. Three playback speeds on one disk; etext edition included. Running time: 7.9 hours (slow), 7.2 hours (medium), 6.5 hours (fast). Both a very readable history, and a source of fascinating insights into London's government at the time (1894) the book was written. Though Besant wrote largely on the history and topography of London, his novels were credited by Rudyard Kipling as inspiring him to seek his own career as a writer.
