Abstract
FARADAY was essentially a Londoner. Although he was born on the south side of the Thames, he spent the greater part of his life in the northern districts between Regent's Park and Oxford Street, or at the Royal Institution in Albemarle Street, Piccadilly. From the following addresses of some of his scientific acquaintances the metropolis of his day becomes alive again. To visit all these highways and byways on foot would certainly be a tiring tramp. Failing, however, the use of a motor car, all the thoroughfares may be found OD any good map of London.
