Title: Should be called "An adequate London walk"
Product review: When you have the audacity to call something "perfect", you should make more of an effort to merit the title.This is a nice little book, and the walk is lovely, but I have seen much better books (and walks). What does make this book charming is that one can imagine walking with Mr. Curley, hearing him recite the literary passages presented here and seeing the sites discussed; indeed, one need not depend solely on imagination since there are a generous number of (black-and-white) photographs included. A very good map of the area is included.But the book fails as either a ramble or a tour guide. If it is a ramble, let there be more narrative; if it is a guidebook, then let there be more information.Taking the walk with Mr. Curley is undoubtedly a wonderful experience. Unfortunately this book does not capture that experience.
