Hoxton Mini Press – An Opinionated Guide to London Museums
Description
Forget what you think you know about museums. This cleverly pocket-sized paperback lifts the lid on over 50 of London’s most eclectic collections—from taxidermied unicorns to subterranean postal railways, and yes, even a mummy or two. Emmy Watts brings a fresh (and gently cheeky) perspective to the capital’s cultural institutions, ensuring you’ll never confuse a sarcophagus with a snoozefest again.
Inside, you’ll find snappy write-ups, a handy ‘best for’ section (date night museum, anyone?), and a charming introduction that sets the tone just right. It’s the perfect companion for curious minds and culture buffs alike—whether you’re a local on the lookout or a visitor keen to skip the obvious.
Oh, and it’s carbon neutral. Because exploring the past shouldn’t cost the future.

-
Curious City Explorers: Discover 50+ quirky, compelling museum spots beyond the usual tourist trail.
-
Easy Day Planning: Handy ‘best for’ guide helps you pick the perfect stop—rain or shine.
-
Sustainable Readers: Printed carbon neutrally, so you can indulge your intellect with a clean conscience.
