A record of the great changes in our lives and landscapes which have created the world we live in today. The unique Frith Collection provides the remarkable historical photographs which date back to the 1860s and which are complemented by photographs of the same scenes taken today.
"Since starting researching family history some years ago, I've grown to love Francis Frith's photos, particularly as I've a special interest in Victorian social history. This book is just wonderful, and I've only read the first dozen or so pages! There are many, many photos, of course, but also Zeigler's excellent commentary about the changes that happened in many areas of the UK."
"This book with hundreds of photographs from the collection of Francis Frith, once a family business but since sold and with updates by John Cleare is not only part of a historical record but is accompanied by a superb text that informs the reader what the people of the day regarded as important or not, the availabilty of goods and shopping and travel."
