Over the past 2,000 years, London has survived invasions, plagues, fires and air raids, witnessed the wealth and power of monarchs such as Henry VIII and Queen Victoria, and the building of palaces, parks and railways. Produced in association with The Museum of London, this is London's incredible story, as it grew from a small Roman town to one of the greatest cities in the world.

Chapters in this book include:
- Romans rule
- Saxons and Vikings
- The Middle Ages
- Tudor times
- Plots, wars and plague
- The Great Fire
- Elegance and despair
- Victorian giant
- The 20th century ...and on
- Timeline of London history

Rob studied Egyptology at university, but never thought he'd do much with it. Since joining Usborne in 2005, he's written loads of books about Ancient Egypt, and on topics ranging from space to the story of Islam. He is also the author of several award-winning historical adventure novels, and a hopeless cook.
