Book excerpt: Published in association with the Royal Parks Foundation, this lushly photographed tribute celebrates some of London’s--and the UK’s--most well-known and best-loved public spaces. From regal palaces and military monuments to art exhibitions and Speakers’ Corner, they provide reminders of Britain’s rich and varied past and present-day settings of great beauty. Each park receives it own chapter, complete with an at-a-glance timeline and breathtaking original photographs that reveal its own special character.
