Alice Stevenson is a Londoner who neither drives, runs nor cycles. Instead Alice walks, navigating the city's parks, pavements and paths daily, in all weathers. As the miles have mounted so too has her knowledge of the city - the thoroughfares and the alleyways, the beauty spots and the forgotten corners. She is a unique guide with a unique eye.
Whether you are walking with a purpose or walking to escape, or simply looking for new ways to appreciate the city, Ways to Walk in London is a revelation. Including walks above-ground and below-ground, waterways, pathways and the Pedway, Alice also opens our eyes to London's hidden places and pasts.
An inspiring collection of walks, notes and artworks, revealing London's multiple layers and different moods.
