Once known as 'the Chicago of the Midlands', in the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries West Bromwich was a renowned industrial town of
a thousand trades without equal. Its bustling High Street also
offered a range of goods and services which were unsurpassed
anywhere in the Black Country, a reputation which can still evoke a
sense of passion and pride among local residents when remembering
'the good old days'. Many townspeople still eagerly recall those
long summer days and evening spent attending the many and varied
events held in the extremely popular Dartmouth Park, as well as a
weekly visit to any one of the eleven cinemas which operated within
the town centre and outer suburbs. Rekindle those lost memories
once again by joining West Bromwich-born author and local historian
Terry Price for another nostalgic walk down memory lane in this,
his third collection of almost 400 old photographs depicting
people, scenes and events in all parts of the borough over the last
100 years.
