{"product_id":"londons-lost-power-stations-and-ben-pedroche-9780752487618","title":"London's Lost Power Stations and Gasworks","description":"Many of London's original power stations have either been demolished, converted for other use, or stand derelict awaiting re-development. But in their prime, these mighty \"cathedrals of power\" played a vital role in London's journey towards becoming the world's most important city. Gasworks also played a key role, manufacturing for industry before later falling out of favour once natural gas was discovered in the North Sea. \u003ci\u003eLondon's Lost Power Stations and Gasworks\u003c\/i\u003e looks at the history of these great places. The focus will mainly be on the most famous and significant examples, particularly those that are still standing today, but long-demolished and forgotten sites will also be included. Appealing to anyone with even the slightest interest in London history, derelict buildings or urban exploring, this fascinating book aims to uncover a part of London's ignored past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ben Pedroche\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0752487612\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780752487618\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Ben Pedroche","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48437994782975,"sku":"9780752487618","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_69339bf2-faa7-421d-8efd-20d50987a6d4.jpg?v=1777168079","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/londons-lost-power-stations-and-ben-pedroche-9780752487618","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
