Biografía del autor

Clive Dunkley is an expert on all things retro. Like some urban Indiana Jones, he has spent many years unearthing London's retro treasures. To fund his addiction to 50s shirts, vintage vinyl and rare old copies of 'Vogue' he was an investment banker before deciding to bring together all his insights into a book. Educated at Foyles, The 100 Club and Cambridge he now lives with his young family in Brighton and is saving up for a car with fins. He has visted all the 136 shops, bars and restaurants in this guide, as well as interviewing all the owners.
