Can anyone suggest any books on the parks in London? I recently visited London and the parks were amazing. I noticed a similar post up but didn't get the titles. (they were tourist books)Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I don't know of any specifically about the parks, but I can recommend a great tourist guide for London. Forgive the name, it's called "London for Dummies". Lots of good tips and info on all of the sights in London.

The royal parks have a website at www.royalparks.gov.uk/ with a link to royal park publications, where I suggest London's Royal Parks An Appreciation by Richard Church, ISBN : 0117528102, and London's Royal Parks, Souvenir Guide, by Pat Pierce and Barbara Haynes, ISBN : 189850606. Each costs &pound;3.95 (plus &pound;1.50 P&amp;P)<BR><BR>Ben Haines, London<BR>

I have an excellent book &quot;Walking London's Parks and Gardens&quot; by Geoffrey Young (1998) which I bought used from Amazon.com &quot;market&quot; (or whatever they call their used book clearinghouse service. This from the jacket: &quot;...Wildlife journalist Geoffrey Young has devised 24 walks around 30 or more or the most historic, fascinating, and beautiful of the multitude of parks and gardens that still flourish in the capital. They range from the diminutive, exquisite Chelsea Physic Garden (the second oldest apothecaries' garden in England, founded in 1676) to the 2,500 acres of Richmond Park, a former royal hunting forest and London's largest park.&quot; Each walk has its own map. A fine, informative resource.
