Books in the Anecdotes of the Manners and Customs of London from the Roman Invasion to the Year 1700 3 Volume Set series

Published in 1811, this three-volume second edition gives a typically personal and often light-hearted account of the history and customs of Malcolm's adopted city. He ponders on the diet and dress of the ancient Britons and suggests that the Great Fire of London was state-sanctioned to rid the city of plague.
