| Over the past 60 years the urban landscape of Britain's major towns and cities has changed dramatically. The changes which have occurred in these years are as radical as those of any other period in recorded history. Large scale redevelopment resulting in new office blocks and shopping centres are part of the equation as is the vast increase in street furniture, most notably the array of road signs without which a modern city seems incapable of operating.
Along with the inexorable rise of the motor car has come the growth of retail chains whose shop fronts are made deliberately to look the same across the country, creating in the process less varied and more uniform streetscapes. The availability of photographs recording the changes has created a great nostalgia for what went before, when towns and cities retained their individuality. Containing some 85 new and, we believe, previously unpublished colour photos, accompanied by detailed captions, recording London and its transport network and other aspects of the city in the years between the end of World War 2 and the 1960s, this new compilation will appeal to a wide constituency including those who live in London, tourists and visitors to the capital and transport enthusiasts. By Ian Whitmarsh and Kevin Robertson Hardback Book. 184 x 240mm. 80 pages About 85 colour photos |
