" The title-page of this little pocket volume claims for it the praise due to an 

 easy and comprehensive guide to everything worth seeing and hearing in and around 

 the metropolis, and states that it is compiled from authentic sources and persona! 

 inquiry. From the examination which we have been able to make of the little 

 brochure, this promise seems to be very fairly fulfilled ; and we cannot do better than 

 recommend this seasonable little manual to the waistcoat pockets of the sight-seers 

 who come up to London. There are sixteen neat illustrations to accompany the 

 letter-press of the volume." — Critic. 



" A compendious and useful guide to the principal places of interest in and 

 around London. Excellent woodcuts have been added, to give completeness to this 

 volume." — Atlas. 



" This is the most portable, complete, and the cheapest guide-book of London 

 that has ever been issued, and contains a brief account of every place that by any 

 courtesy can be called a lion of the metropolis, while the illustrations that accompany 

 so many of the descriptions, though small, have the rare advantage of being most 

 accurate representations." — Era. 



"The foreigner or provincial visitor to the metropolis will find this cheap guide- 

 book as useful as anything pocketable could be for the purpose. Every place in 

 London and the vicinity that is worth seeing is here described, and made accessible by 

 the details of ways and means for getting to it." — Globe. 



"This book has a very proper title. In every sense of the word it is a handy 

 book — a book capable of doing what it professes to do, to guide its possessor to all 

 places of note in the great city of the world, London. All those who wish to see 

 London as it really is, should purchase it." — City Press.
