About this product
Product Information
This new history of Huntingdon gives a vivid and lively insight into the ways in which this East Anglian market town has evolved across the years. Authors Alan Akeroyd and Caroline Clifford look back over the town's long history, from the mediaeval period and the time of Cromwell to the dramatic changes that occurred in the Victorian and Edwardian eras and the transformation that altered the face and character of the town in the 20th century. This beautifully illustrated account will be essential - and eye-opening - reading for every Huntingdon resident, past and present. The early development of the town is recorded in fascinating detail. The authors describe the lives and society of the mediaeval townspeople and record the buildings they left behind. But the book concentrates on the more recent history, on the 19th and 20th centuries when the town took on the shape we know today. This period saw unprecedented change and growth. In 1900 Huntingdon was a small, run-down market town, but the 1950s saw the arrival of a fresh generation of people who had moved out of London. A new chapter in Huntingdon's long history had begun. The authors chart the course of this dramatic transformation and look at every aspect of life in the town - from aircraft manufacture to cinemas, from workhouses to schools - and they remember the lives of remarkable individuals who played key roles in the story. Their book reveals how the decisions made by the council in the 1950s paved the way for today's town, and it examines how much daily life in Huntingdon has had to change over the last century and continues to change.

- l***1 (628)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI ordered 4 books at the same time from the same seller so eBay is annoying by asking for 4 separate bits of feedback. So - copy and paste: ordered Saturday evening, despatched Sunday and delivered in one parcel (good seller) tracked Royal Mail lunchtime Tuesday. Excellent service, very good packing. All books as described. Nectar is equally as it treats each book as a separate purchase. I'll get 8 emails from Nectar, eventually. Grumble over. It seems that Baham is owned by Awesome.
- l***1 (1901)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseLiving with Diabetes Book as described and pictured. Very good used condition, good quality with a nice appearance and very good value. I bought this for my husband as he has type 2 diabetes and this is The Diabetes UK Guide for those treated with tablets as my husband is or diet, so I hope it will give him better understanding of his diabetes. Good communication dispatched quickly well wrapped delivered very quickly very pleased with it. Highly Recommended Seller
