New book(s) launch at Maggs Bros (Living with Buildings and the ultimate bibliography)

Iain and Jeffrey Johnson will launch their latest books in a combined event at Maggs Bros in London from 6pm on December 4th.

There will be a Q&A session with the public starting at 7pm.

Copies of the books will be available for sale and Iain and Jeff to sign them.

I just realised that this website has been around for over 10 years, in fact it started in June 2008.

Happy 10th anniversary!

A huge thank you to Iain for letting me create this website and for feeding it with details about his work and his life.

One of the advantages of working 12 hours a day is that one can miss almost anything else other than work.

For example the fact that Iain just published not one, but two new books!

I missed the opportunity to even announce these books post-publication.

Here is a review… “The Urban Wanderer” on a website subtitled “The Newspaper of Resistance”.
