Summary:

London has more mainline railway stations than any other city in the world and many of them are amongst its grandest architectural monuments.

Ever since they opened, these stations have been at the heart of London life and have dominated the architectural landscape. Many are now in the midst of major reconstructions and are the centrepieces for the transformation of whole swathes of London, from Paddington to King's Cross.

This presentation by author Oliver Green with photography by Benjain Graham tells this comprehensive story, combining an historical overview with archive illustrations and specially commissioned photography.

The book of the same title is published by Frances Lincoln, price £35.
