This fascinating selection of photographs illustrates the
extraordinary transformation that has taken place in Cheltenham
during the twentieth century. The book offers an insight into the
daily lives and living conditions of local people and gives the
reader glimpses and details of familiar places during a century of
unprecedented change. Many aspects of Cheltenham's recent history
are covered, famous occasions and individuals are remembered, and
the impact of national and international events is witnessed. The
book also provides a striking account of the changes that have also
altered Cheltenham's appearance, and records the process of
transformation. Drawing on detailed local knowledge of the
community, and illustrated with a wealth of black and white
photographs, this book recalls what Cheltenham has lost in terms of
buildings, traditions and ways of life. It also acknowledges and
celebrates the character and energy of local people as they moved
through the first years of this new century.
