In "Guildford Life: Past and Present" Stan Newman delves into the
fascinating history of what is arguably Surrey's most beautiful
town. Building on the work of previous historians, Newman presents
a compendium of life in Guildford, from the dark mystery of Agatha
Christie's 1926 disappearance, to the jubilant arrival of Queen
Elizabeth II in 2006.This is a celebration of the Guildford
community - be it the bravery of its soldiers or the enthusiasm of
Carnival Week performers - and a record of its change. Discover
here the demise of once-loved pubs, or the transformation of quiet
streets into bustling thoroughfares. As he moves through countless
tales and anecdotes, Newman invites you to relive the joys of days
gone by and explore the charms of today. With over 370 photographs
detailing life from 1865 onwards, this is an invitation not to be
missed. This is a collection of over 370 carefully chosen images.
It offers a wonderful mix of moving stories and comic anecdotes.
