The essays cover London Docks, Oxford Street Tide, Great Men's Houses, Abbeys and Cathedrals,

"This is the House of Commons", and Portrait of a Londoner. The essays were first published in the 'Good Housekeeping' magazine, beginning in the spring of 1931 and then bi-monthly through to December 1932.
