Around Norwich is not just another book on this fine city.
Combining many previously unpublished photographs of outstanding
quality and interest with well-researched captions, including many
new facts and stories, one of the county's foremost local
historians has created a fascinating narrative of the city,
suburbs, people, shops and events of the past. Some images will be
reassuringly familiar, some have changed or are lost beyond
recollection. In one of its most turbulent centuries, the city has
lived through the coming of the trains and the tram system, the
Baedeker Blitz of 1942 and the construction of the inner link roads
in the 1960s. It also takes a look at some of the sports and
entertainment; from Norwich City FC playing at 'The Nest' to The
Hippodrome Theatre. This book will be an enduring and nostalgic
record, of interest to anyone who knows and loves the City of
Norwich.
