Acclaimed writer and editor Craig Taylor spent years traversing every corner of London, getting to know the most interesting of its residents?the voice of the London Underground, a West End rickshaw driver, an East End nightclub door attendant, a mounted soldier of the Queen's Life Guard. Now, in Londoners, this diverse cast of characters?rich and poor, young and old, native and immigrant, men and women (and even a Sarah who used to be a George)?shares indelible tales that capture the city as never before. With candor and humor, these voices paint a vivid, epic, and wholly original portrait of twenty-first-century London, scripting the autobiography of one of the world's greatest cities.
