Review:
Geoffrey Tyack has produced a rich and exhaustive almanac that shows just how - and often why - our urban landscape has evolved over time... The Making of Our Urban Landscape is a triumph. In its lavish detail and encyclopedic scholarship, it is a modern Baedeker for the whole of urban Britain, drawing us to explore this rich urban heritage for ourselves. Jerry White, Literary Review
