Each image is accompanied by a detailed caption, bringing the past alive and describing many aspects of life in the city, including chapters on wartime, work, sport, shopping, entertainment and celebrations, providing a vital record of vanished vistas and past practices.
This book will appeal to anyone with an interest in the history of the area, and also awaken memories of a bygone time for those who worked or lived in the ‘Second City’.
