本書展現了北京內城、外城和皇城自1860 年北京首次有照片資料到20世紀60 年代的圖片資料，本書精選了450+幅圖，呈現了這一百年間老北京城門城垣較清晰的舊影。通過這些影像的拍攝者和傳播者，使我們如今得以領略關於這片土地的記憶——老北京的城池建築和風貌。紫禁城榮幸留存至今，暫不在此書之列。本書以歷史影像作為時間軸線，加以敘述北京城門、城垣演變和消失的過程。每座城門搭配小傳和影像注釋，是作者翻閱大量關於北京的史料、民俗典故，以及考證判定後所擬，力求通過不同的視角來還原這座古城不同時代的舊影，展現北京城的變遷、繁榮、和平和戰亂，帶給讀者充實而豐富的體驗。每一幅影像都是凝固的歲月切片，或許讀者還能在書頁中與那些消逝的城門、湮滅的市井喧囂發生共鳴。這不是一本冰冷的圖集，而是一部帶著情感和熱愛的民間記憶檔案，也是一位普通北京人對故土最深沉的告白。
