This light hearted and novel guide to the London of Shakespeare's day gives the reader the chance to explore the city at the close of the 16th century. Based on the works of Tudor authors and contemporary ephemera it gives a run down of the people who matter and the realities of day-to-day living. The chapters also guide the reader as to what leisure activities were available at the time, from tennis and fencing to bear baiting and also to where you might want to go on an away day from the city: Deptford, Hampton Court and Nonsuch. Measurements: 13cm x 19.8cm x 1.2cm
