Fourth Estate The Story of Greenwich
A hot topic, of course, with the building of the Millennium Dome, but Clive Aslet's portrait of this fascinating town-within-a-town is very much more than a cobbled-together bit of opportunism. He has a brilliant eye for the telling detail, and a great talent for imaginatively re-creating the past. From the earliest days, when the place was a wilderness of mudflats and reedbeds, right up to the present, Greenwich has been many things: a naval centre with the old Seaman's Hospital and later the Royal Naval College, a place of magnificent architecture, with contributions by Inigo Jones, Wren, Hawksmoor and Vanbrugh, and also an intellectual centre with the foundation of the Royal Observatory there in the 1670s, which established Greenwich Mean Time and made Greenwich itself, quite literally, the first place in the world. <p>Aslet also sprinkles his text with a good quota of amusing anecdotes- -particularly his account of George IV's estranged wife, Princess Caroline, whose antics are irresistibly reminiscent of a more recent Royal ex! During her residence at Montague House, she would hold parties where she would show off a curious little Chinese figurine on her mantelpiece that performed obscene movements, and then she would dance about like an opera girl, gartered below the knee. As Lady Hester Stanhope wrote, she was so low, so vulgar! --<I>Christopher Hart</I>

Abacus Greenwich
Greenwich was initially thought a poor choice for the millennium celebrations. Beyond the picturesque park, Observatory and Naval College, it is a sprawl of run-down estates. The transport links were ineffectual and the Dome site was a ghastly industrial wasteland, in a state of what Jennings calls poisonous decay thanks to chemical plants and gas works. Many considered Birmingham a better choice. What swung the decision was the weight of history. What could be a more appropriate place to mark the millenium than the very place where time itself is measured?<p> Charles Jennings' <I>Greenwich</I> explores the history that culminated in the Dome--a story as curious and eclectic as the place itself. Somehow this obscure fishing village beyond city boundaries grew to become the centre of Britain's Navy, the birthplace of classical architecture and a Royal home. Greenwich Mean Time was declared in an 1880 Act of Parliament, having come into common use through railway timetable synchronisation. Before that, longitude, latitude and the positions of the stars were already been calculated at the Observatory.<p> Jennings' previous portraits of Britain--the upper classes caricatured in <I>People Like Us</I> and Northern life explored in <I>Up North</I>--demonstrated his wry humour. But <I>Greenwich</I>is a very different, meandering history, which doesn't always capture the place and its people. The most fascinating material in the book is the working-class history and lurid folk law--wild beast shows, tumbling and intoxication at the Greenwich Fair; the highwaymen of Blackheath; notorious murderers--which could have filled an entire book in itself.--<I>Sarah Champion</I>
