About this product

Product Information

For a century and a half Preston was the archetypal Lancashire cotton town, with mills and terraced houses for the workers. Behind the ecomic might of firms such as Horrocks, there was hardship and squalor: Charles Dickens used Preston as the darkest face of Victorian industry in his vel Hard Times . Yet Preston had been an important market town, administrative centre and transport hub for hundreds of years before the first mill, and since the demise of cotton the town has resumed these ancient roles with renewed vigour. With city status recently gained, and the 2012 Guild fast approaching, w is the time to re-evaluate Preston's unique and important place in the nation's history. This is a wonderful book, fully illustrated.

    While the movie took sometime to arrive it did arrive safely and for free postage from overseas. The dvd was well packaged and in very good condition just as described by the sender. Communication with the seller was excellent and response to a recent communication over this items non arrival was very fast (note the movie arrived the next day). I would have no hesitation in using this seller again.

    The item arrived, safe and sound, on 18th June. All aspects of the transaction trouble-free; very fair price; accurate description of the book; care in packaging to prevent damage to the book in transit (to me, the most important aspect of the transaction); delivery in seventeen days from the date of order: excellent. Many thanks to the seller.
