| 520 | _a"Early London: Prehistoric, Roman, Saxon and Norman" by Sir Walter Besant is a historical account published in the early 20th century. The book explores the formative years of London through various epochs, notably its prehistoric roots, Roman establishment, and subsequent Saxon and Norman influences. It aims to provide a detailed understanding of how this great city evolved from its early days, delving into both the geological and social aspects that shaped its development. At the start of the narrative, Besant outlines the geological foundations of London, emphasizing the significance of the Thames River and its marshy surroundings in determining the city's initial site. The opening chapters investigate the physical landscape, illustrating how the valley's contours and natural resources made it suitable for early settlement despite its inhospitable characteristics. As the author introduces the prehistoric inhabitants, he postulates on their potential settlement patterns and interactions, leading to the emergence of a fortified community. The groundwork laid in these initial chapters sets the stage for examining the influences and transformations the city underwent through various historical phases.
