"New Frontier: The Origins and Development of West London (Crossrail Archaeology)" (Richard Brown, Andy Shelley, Elizabeth Stafford, 2016)
Fantastic look at the history of the area in West London... starting REALLY early, way before the Thames even went the way it goes nowadays (surprise, it followed a different route before).
Lots of old maps, schemas, tables with data, pictures and drawings... veritably a treasure trove of facts around this super popular area in London. After reading this book you can't look at the streets in the usual way!
