Bedfordshire Through Time contains delightful period photographs of
the towns and villages in this rural county. These images have been
sourced mainly from the Sandy Chrystal postcard collection held by
Bedfordshire & Luton Archives & Records Service - many
being published for the first time. The contrasting modern colour
pictures provide accessible and interesting insights into the many
changes that have taken place over decades. The book also features
extracts from a range of guidebooks and historical publications by
authors such as journalist Arthur Mee and historian C. Gore
Chambers, which appeared in the first fifty years of the last
century when the original pictures were taken. While the major
towns of Luton and Bedford have suffered from modernisation, most
of this county's heritage has been left largely untouched for us to
enjoy today.
