Overview
The secret history of London.In 1666 London, after the Great Fire had been put out, the builders and architects set out to create a new city – one to be built in the full glory deserving of its destiny as the site of the New Jerusalem. This is the city that would descend from the sky at the second coming as foretold in the Book of Revelations. The New Jerusalem takes the reader on a guided tour of a hidden London, revealing the true significance of such well-known sites as St. Paul’s Cathedral, the Monument and Temple church. It also introduces the men and women who shaped seventeenth century London, leaving a legacy of mystical significance.
