Palaces of Power: The Birth and Evolution of London's Clubland by Stephen Hoare
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3.3mb
Overview: Stephen Hoare’s genial history of Clubland is a fascinating story told with wit and verve. This is a tour of gentleman’s clubs in London from their rowdy beginnings in the seventeenth century to their stately present. This book vividly captures clubland’s history in all its transient (and occasionally squalid) glory.
For three and a half centuries, St James’s clubs, coffee houses and institutions have been shaped by enterprise, political conflict and Britain’s emerging role as an Imperial power. This is the historic heart of London’s Clubland, in the heart of London: Piccadilly, Mayfair, Bond Street, Covent Garden and Westminster. Ever discreet, the clubs do not draw attention to themselves, though their members are often highly influential individuals who are leaders in politics, the law, the media and much more.
Palaces of Power charts the evolution of London’s Clubland, St James’s, exploring the social and cultural history of the city’s most prestigious district, and studying the tensions between the world of privilege and an emerging public realm over the last three centuries
