Ian Nairn was an architecture writer whose outspoken critique of banal postwar city planning, 'Outrage', first propelled him to fame. 'Nairn's London', written a decade later, was his idiosyncratic, highly personal love letter to the London and its buildings, 'a record of what has moved me', as he put it, 'between Uxbridge and Dagenham', from well-known monuments such as Westminster Abbey to railway stations, synagogues, a timber merchants, a gas board building and 27 different pubs.
