As a young student, who had grown up in the middle of a cornfield and now found herself in London in the 70's, the Nicholson's London Guide saved me more than once. The small street and tube maps helped me find my way. The clear, concise instructions about how to pay (and how to get off) when sitting on the top of a double decker bus were invaluable. This guide helped me find cheap theater tickets, a good laundry, and the best flea markets around. Because it was pocket-sized, it was my constant companion. Because it was bright red, it was never lost... and neither was I. Now, returning to London for the first time in years I am saddened to learn that the Guide is no longer published. I feel sorry for all the young midwestern students wandering around lost in London today. Bring it back!
