Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Churches of the City of London Time works strange mutations in all human affairs. It is no cause for wonder, then, that London should have lost much of its ancient surroundings; the marvel is that so many of its old landmarks still remain. Portions of the famous Roman Wall may still be traced, some of the towers of which were in existence not much more than a century ago. London of to-day stands upon the site of a city, many times destroyed and as oft rebuilt, yet has not shifted from the scene of its earliest occupation. The distant views of the 'Metropolis of the World' reveal the landmarks of many centuries. The St. Paul's of to-day stands upon the same site as the early minster founded by Ethelbert, King of Kent, in 610. The towers of Westminster mark the spot on which was reared the church begun by Sebert and completed 360 years later, receiving the name of Westminster because of its position west of St. Paul's. The third landmark is also with us to-day, and has 'marked time' for many centuries; we refer to the White Tower of the keep of the Tower of London. It remains, even to its white bleached stones, rendered so by the rain and wind of the passing years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Faith in the City of London written by and published by Unicorn. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mention of faith in the city of London first conjures images of ceremonies in St. Paul's Cathedral, but there are more than forty other Anglican churches, as well as Jewish, Dutch, Catholic, and Welsh places of worship squeezed in between the Square Mile's towers of commerce. Intrigued by this incongruity, acclaimed London photographer Niki Gorick has gained unique access to capture the day-to-day workings of these ancient buildings. In her exploration, she discovered a vibrant, diverse spiritual life stretching out into many faiths. This is a book about London and Londoners from a previously unexplored angle, revealing a rich mix of characters, traditions, and human-interest stories. From weddings, communions, evangelical studies, and carol services to Knights Templar investitures, fish displays, Afghan music, and vicars wielding knives, the photographs show an extraordinary range of spiritual goings-on and charismatic personalities. For the first time, readers get to glimpse a side of London's Square Mile not dominated by money-making, where city workers try to connect to life's deeper meanings and where religious traditions and questions of faith are still very much alive. With stunning images and an introduction by Edward Lucie-Smith, Faith in the City of London dispels many preconceptions about the capital and captures the true character of its inhabitants.
