Stephen Hoare – författare

Piccadilly, London’s milelong western artery, was originally known for its busy coaching inns and magnificent aristocratic palaces, and, more recently, for its internationally renowned department stores, theatres, restaurants and hotels. At the junction of five major roads, Piccadilly Circus became known as the ‘Hub of Empire’. Balancing enterprise, profit and pleasure, it marks the divide between polite society and a bustling nightlife.In this book, London historian Stephen Hoare explores how and why ‘Dilly’ has always been a haunt for pleasure seekers. It traces the development of London’s West End from its aristocratic origins right through to its hedonistic heyday, when the Bright Young Things rubbed shoulders with royalty, film stars, gangsters, pimps and prostitutes. Today, Piccadilly’s traditional institutions, such as Hatchards, Fortnum and Mason, the Royal Academy and the Ritz, sit alongside sushi bars, Viennese coffee shops and fashionable jewellers and boutiques as the neon lights of the Circus continue to attract visitors from across the globe.

‘A tour of gentleman’s clubs from their rowdy beginnings to their stately present’ - The Times‘This book vividly captures clubland’s brief history in all its transient (and occasionally squalid) glory’ - Daily Mail‘Stephen Hoare’s genial history of this Clubland-at-home is a fascinating story told with wit and verve’ - Professor Jerry White, Birbeck University of LondonThe core of what we call St James’s dates from the late seventeenth century, when large estates were leased by the Crown to the landed gentry after the Restoration in 1660. St James’s clubs, coffee houses and institutions have been shaped by enterprise, political conflict and Britain’s emerging role as an Imperial power. This is the historic heart of London’s Clubland.Over 300 years, Clubland has extended its reach to encompass Piccadilly, Mayfair, Bond Street, Covent Garden and Westminster. Ever discreet, the clubs do not draw attention to themselves, though their members are often highly influential individuals who are leaders in politics, the law, the media and much more.Palaces of Power charts the evolution of London’s Clubland, St James’s, exploring the social and cultural history of the city’s most prestigious district, and studying the tensions between the world of privilege and an emerging public realm over the last three centuries.
