Review # 1 was written on 2017-10-08 00:00:00 Mike Brown So I picked up this book years ago when visiting London with my grandmother. I thought I'd buy it to the husband (then boyfriend) but never actually got around to give it to him. Now that we're married anyway, he can just pick it up if he wants, but he don't really read, so.... Anywho, the book. I had hoped it would be a collection of short ghost stories based on ''real'' events in the London Underground. Mostly, though, it was a textbook about the Railway history of London, with a little anecdote about ghosts at the end. Took me 3 days to read a book with under 100 pages, not a good sign... |
Review # 2 was written on 2013-05-13 00:00:00 Rene Serna As an avid London Underground geek I had to have this book. While most of the stories are probably available in some form online this book compiles many of them in to one volume. Slim enough to carry around on a trip to London, it does get you thinking about what we don't see while travelling below the streets of London. There were quite a few stories which I hadn't heard before, along with some I hadn't. My only gripe was that there weren't any tales from the likes of the big termini, Euston, Victoria etc. Perhaps those ghosts just haven't made an appearance yet... All in all, a great book. If you have a vivid imagination, just don't read it at night! |
