- Book Synopsis
- In the eighteenth century, Liverpool's position as a favoured port for Britain's growing Atlantic trade to the West Indies and America allowed it to expand rapidly. It soon became one of the largest and richest cities in the country, and the architectural legacy of the city's wealth can still be seen today. In the last 100 years, Liverpool's fortunes have changed, but although it was heavily bombed during the Second World War and experienced decline afterwards through the loss of many of its industries, the city has been regenerated in recent decades, becoming European City of Culture and having areas granted World Heritage Sites. It is now a leading economic and cultural centre, with new developments alongside its architectural legacy transforming the city today. In Liverpool in Photographs Mark McNeill celebrates the changing face of the city in a collection of stunning images that portray not just the new buildings that characterise modern Liverpool, but also how the older parts survive alongside them. For all those who are proud to live and work in Liverpool, as well as those visiting, this book is a must. Look through these photographs and you will quickly see the enduring fascination of this special city.
