Durham City Through Time is a unique insight into the illustrious
history of this part of the country. Reproduced in full colour, this is
an exciting examination of Durham City, the famous streets and the
famous faces, and what they meant to the people of this area throughout
the 19th and into the 20th Century. Looking beyond the exquisite
exterior of these well-kept photos, readers can see the historical
context in which they are set and through the author's factual captions
for every picture, and carefully-selected choice of images, the reader
can achieve a reliable view of this city's history. Readers are invited
to follow a timeline of events and watch the changing faces of Durham
City, as Michael Richardson guides us through the streets of this city.
There is something for everyone here, whether they have lived in this
area all their lives or whether they are just visiting the area. It also
shows how photography has continually evolved to keep up with an
ever-changing society.
