Dirty Old London

In Victorian London, filth was everywhere: horse traffic filled the streets with dung, household rubbish went uncollected, and graveyards teemed with rotting corpses. The author guides us through the underbelly of the Victorian metropolis, introducing us to those who struggled to stem a rising tide of pollution, and the forces that opposed them.

In Londra victoriana, murdaria era peste tot: traficul de cai umplea strazile cu balega, gunoiul menajer ramanea necolectat, iar cimitirele erau pline de cadavre putrezite. Autorul ne indruma prin abdomenul metropolei victoriene, prezentandu-ne celor care s-au luptat sa opreasca o maree crescanda de poluare si fortele care li s-au opus.
