David Kynaston

"Like its three predecessors, A Club No More is a work of breathtaking scope and accomplishment.' D J Taylor, Independent Magisterial ... Kynaston is compulsively readable on all the great city scandals of recent years. But apart from anything else, his final volume is worth reading as a social documentary of our times.' Observer The fifty or so years which are chronicled here in impressive detail were momentous ones for the City.. .an outstanding achievement.' TLS The four volumes of his City history of the last 200 years are a splendid achievement ... invaluable.' Howard Davies, The Times It is a good story, superbly told by Kynaston, who holds together a very diverse narrative with considerable skill. Its greatest merit is that it can be read by specialist and non-specialist alike.' Financial Times With this volume, there ends the most interesting and original piece of history writing of our times.' James Buchan, Evening Standard As complete and as readable a record of the City's life as we could ever hope for...a remarkable exercise of scholarship and observation.' Literary Review Like the earlier volumes, this book is rich in detail and splendidly entertaining.. .Kynast
