London Tours and Literary TrailsLondon has an unrivalled literary heritage, and our London Tours and Trails provide a wide-ranging guide to the writers, poets and dramatists who have lived and worked in the capital. Many buildings, places, sights (and sites!) intimately associated with writers throughout the ages still exist and can be visited - from Walter Ralegh, William Shakespeare, Samuel Pepys, and Dr Johnson to Carlyle, Dickens, Marx, Rimbaud, T S Eliot, as well as contemporary writers such as Ian McEwan and Alan Hollinghurst. London tours This vast, enlivening history stretches back over 700 years to the 13th and 14th centuries and writers such as Geoffrey Chaucer and Thomas Malory and the printer William Caxton, who in 1477 produced the first printed book in England on his printing press close by Westminster Abbey.
Over the coming weeks and months we will be posting a series of walks, guides and London trails.
