NOTE TO THE THIRD EDITION
These essays were written day after day, week after week, to keep pace with the relentless machines of the "Daily Express." Since this book was published many kind unknown friends have written to tell me that here they have found something that is London; but they should not thank me: they should thank the great city which, written to death generation by generation, is an undying topic, discovered age by age is still inexhaustible; stripped bare of mystery by many writers has never lost its magic.
H. V. M.

When a man is tired of London he is tired of life: for there is in London all that life can afford.
—Dr. Johnson
