Peter Ackroyd has written great books on London and Venice
Mike Davis, City of Quartz, on LA, is a gem.
Elijah Anderson, The Cosmopolitan Canopy, on race in Philadelphia, is an accessible work of urban Sociology.
Wendell Pierce has written a book on New Orleans but I have not yet read it.
George Orwell - Down and Out in Paris and London. A very dark work and somewhat misanthropic, as his politics had not yet matured.
