Lost Sheffield in Colour Revised Edition : The City Centre

Sheffield is the fourth-largest city in England and was where the Industrial Revolution began in earnest. The city is renowned for its high-quality steel and fine cutlery, for its two large universities and for having the biggest shopping centre in Europe, yet there is so much more to its history and its heritage. In this revised edition of Lost Sheffield in Colour, which concentrates on the city centre, around 150 images, many in full colour, capture the city''s special identity, from beautiful landscapes to smog-covered housing, from a short-lived airport to the Sheffield theatre. In this collection, we see the industries, events, parks, museums and people of Sheffield city centre in a bygone era.

This fascinating picture of old Sheffield will be of interest to all those who live in this vibrant city in South Yorkshire or have known it well over the years.
