Welcome to City of Shadows 

This website is dedicated to London and England during the 19th century, with an emphasis on the darker side of Victorian life. All the content of the site comes from my own primary sources, dating from the late 18th century through the early 20th century.

Update, April 24, 2007

I apologize for the lack of updates on this site. Currently, I am expanding my rare book and bookbinding business, as well as writing a book set in 17th century London.

At the moment, I cannot say when I will be able to upload more content, however, if you have a special request, please email me from the contact page and I will see if I can add it to the site.
