                                London Guidebooks
   Visitors to London, which has so much to offer, need all the help they can get. Alastair Beckley takes his pick of the capital’s guidebooks.
   Guidebook A
   Informal and familiar in tone, this valuable book has much to offer. Produced by the same people who put together London’s principal listings magazine, this is right Lip to date with what’s happening in the city very much its home ground. It is concise enough to cater for those staying for just a couple of days, yet covers all areas of interest to visitors in an admirably condensed and approachable way. On balance, this is the single most handy book to have with you in London.
   Guidebook B
   This book is beautifully illustrated, with cutaway diagrams of buildings and bird’s-eye-view itineraries rather than plain maps. leis is a model of the clear professional design that is the recognisable trademark of this series. Its coverage of the main sights is strong, and visually it’s a real trial - a delight to own as a practical guide. It’s a bit pricey but well worth a look.
   Guidebook C
  Probably the best-suited for a longish stay in the city. This guide surpasses its competitors in its sheer depth of knowledge and in the detail it provides. It’s particularly handy for the thorough stroller with plenty of time on his or her hands, covering virtually every building or monument of any interest-and with well- drawn maps of each area. ILs coverage of all types of restaurants, which encourages you to go out and try them, can also be appreciated from the comfort of your armchair.
   Guidebook D
   In many ways, this serviceable guide is broadly comparable to the other guides but, whereas many of them feel as though they come from the ’inside’, this feels geared towards visitors from elsewhere in the English-speaking world. It has its strengths, offering decent coverage of the sights, museums and inexpensive places to eat.
   Guidebook E
   It is astonishing-and perhaps the greatest tribute one can pay to London as a city  that it’s possible to have a high-quality holiday there and scarcely spend anything on admission charges. In this guide, the obvious bargains (National Gallery, British Museum, etc.) are almost lost among an impressive range of places which cost nothing to visit. It should pay more attention to the numerous wonderful churches in [he City of London but otherwise this is a must for the seriously budget-conscious or the Londoner who is looking for something different (like me). The book itself isn’t quite free, but at ￡4.95, it’s not far off it.
   Guidebook F
   This is the latest in the longest-standing series of budget guides and, unlike its competitors, it is still definitely aimed at young backpackers. Its description of the sights is less detailed than most and the accuracy of some of the information is surprisingly poor for such a regularly updated publication. However, it manages to cram in everything of significance, and is strongly weighted towards practicalities and entertainment.
   Guidebook G
   Here is a guide which comes with a distinct personality rather than following the .style of the series to which it belongs. It is chatty, companionable, opinionated, crammed full of history and anecdotes as well as practical information. I can best describe the experience (for that’s what it is) of reading this book as follows: imagine arriving in town and being taken in hand by a local who is determined to show you the best of everything and to give you the benefit of their considerable experience of a city for which they obviously hold a passion.
