    Summary: 
    "London possesses a literary heritage which is unique and in large part unrivalled in any city in the world. In this book, literary London is presented through its authors and literature: William Shakespeare, Andrea Levy, G.A. Henty, Geoffrey Chaucer, P.L. Travers, Samuel Pepys, Sherlock Holmes, Charles Dickens, Una Marson, Joe Orton, John Keats, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Phillis Wheatley, Abdulrazak Gurnah, Katherine Mansfield, Harry Potter and Samuel Selvon to name just a very few. The text takes the reader on a series of walks, each of which is original and unique, the result of twenty years' exploration of this wonderful city. I think I have walked everywhere! Detailed maps have been specially commissioned. The text is accompanied by over 80 original photographs taken by me. [Stephen Browning]. It has received some very positive reviews. The ‘Library Journal’ in the USA, which is the main publication for reviewing and recommending books for inclusion in American libraries says: 'Meant for travelers and general readers, this book belongs to adventurers of all sorts, whether on the road or in their minds.'"--the author's website.
    Stephen Browning has written a series of books with Norfolk themes. Norwich in the Great War was published by Pen & Sword in January 2016. Other titles include Discover Norwich, Discover Norfolk - Land of Wide Skies, Spirit of Norwich Cathedral, Norfolk Food Heroes and Peddars Way and the Norfolk Coast Path. He has also written The World of Charles Dickens. In Asia, he has written several books aimed at helping young professionals with their English skills, two of which have won top awards in Taiwan. Time permitting, he also enjoys writing features for Norfolk magazines and newspapers as well as detective stories.
