| Summary | "A Walk from London to Fulham" by Thomas Crofton Croker is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The narrative captures the author's musings and observations as he travels along the route from London to Fulham, highlighting significant landmarks, historical figures, and cultural anecdotes associated with the area. Through his journey, Croker seeks to preserve the memory of places that may soon be lost due to urban development. The opening of the text introduces the reader to Croker’s reflections on the recurring nature of his commute and how familiarity with a specific route can deepen one's appreciation for its history and stories. He expresses a profound connection to the landscape, pondering the lives of those who once inhabited the various locales he passes. He sets the tone for the subsequent chapters, which will blend personal narrative with detailed descriptions of the journey from Knightsbridge to Brompton, noting the changes in the environment and the significance of the towns he encounters.
