BOOK DISCOVERY
London guide
First published 1987
London guide, published by the Automobile Association in 1987, is catalogued under guide-books and description. The concise title and institutional authorship identify it as a practical resource for approaching London through organized information rather than literary narrative. This entry stays with those bibliographic signals: a guidebook, a city, and the act of description. It invites consideration of how an established motoring organization might structure urban knowledge for users, and how descriptive choices can influence movement, expectations, and attention during a visit.
