Cheerfully unpretentious and brash with all the trimmings one would
expect of a traditional seaside resort, Blackpool remains the
iconic resort town, but there is more to its richly coloured
history than you might think. This absorbing collection of images
reveals the changing face of the town during the past century. Over
200 old postcards and photographs - many never previously published
- help highlight Blackpool's remarkable transformation from a
fledgling resort. Aspects of everyday life in the town are featured
here, including social occasions, the pleasure steamers that once
plied their trade from the piers, seaside entertainment and old
cherished street scenes of bygone Blackpool. This book is a
valuable pictorial history, which will waken nostalgic memories for
some readers, whilst offering a unique glimpse at the past for
others.
