I had literally just asked my son to get it for me for Christmas!

Thank you :)

Thank you. That was very much the idea, and I hope it tells some interesting and largely unknown life stories as a result.

Thank you. But sorry, no. It’s published through them and they handle print on demand.

Sorry, that abebooks link doesn’t work properly. You may have more luck with the search at abebooks.co.uk for ‘Tallis’s London Street Views’. NB there are a few people selling single pages for ridiculous sums, so beware of those.

It was reprinted in 2002. I got mine from abebooks. The cheapest one on there now is about £70 (see first link). But it’s also digitised - second link below.

It really is. Obviously it’s not all of London, but a fair chunk of the centre. Read with a map, you can work your way along a street and see the shops and other buildings in relation to each other. Though only those who paid Tallis a fee are named!
