Review by Library Journal Review

Urban photographer and London native Teesdale, inspired by Brandon Stanton's Humans of New York project, captures the essences of London and its vibrant blend of inhabitants in this title. This book has a cozy feel and provides a good antidote with a shot of elixir sure to restore the feeling of a receding hope. With a collection of candid, honest sound bites, against the backdrop of some of London's most popular surrounding landscapes, Teesdale takes the reader on a photographic tour of the unfamiliar, while tapping into the hearts and souls of her subjects, finding the raw honest emotion of what makes one human. VERDICT While this volume could be a quick read for the visuals alone, readers should linger over the photos and the interviews so as not to be deprived of the warmth and truthfulness that revives humanity.-Tamikka Malloy, Camden Cty.
