London Guide

Meg Rosoff

First published 1998

London Guide, by Meg Rosoff, is a travel guide first published in 1998. Its catalogued subjects—description and travel, guidebooks, and travel—place it within the practical literature of visiting London. Rather than treating the title as a narrative, this entry recognizes it as a resource whose value depends on how information about a city is selected, organized, and used. The book’s metadata connects travel writing with the guidebook form, inviting attention to how visitors encounter London through curated descriptions and navigational choices.
