| First published in 1913, this account begins with a 'convent garden' belonging to Westminster Abbey in the 17th century and ends three centuries later, with Covent Garden as the world's most famous vegetable market. The book examines the area's historic landmarks, including the Royal Opera House and St Paul's Church, as well as the eminent inhabitants - including Charles Lamb, Samuel Johnson and the celebrated actors of Drury Lane - who contributed to Covent Garden's unique character. | |||||
