BUILT IN CHELSEA (PB)

Among the London districts, Chelsea has always held a special charm for residents and visitors alike – spacious and gracious with the River Thames as background, but with a unique history of artists, bohemians and good causes. Twelve chapters tell episodes from this history, based on buildings that mark the stages of change, connecting what can be seen on the street with the hidden histories of architects, patrons and the diverse people who have made their lives in and around them.
