Camden New Journal: "London Under"

Link to book review

"LONDON historian Peter Ackroyd’s latest book uncovers a subterranean world which today's London sits on top of. Ackroyd calls on readers to:
"Tread carefully over the pavements, for you are treading on skin, a skein of stone that covers rivers and labyrinths, tunnels and chambers, streams and caverns, pipes and cables, springs and passages, crypts and sewers, creeping things that will never see the light of day..."
'London Under' by Peter Ackroyd. Chatto and Windus, £12.99
