| Publisher Description: This superb selection of 200 photographs provides a nostalgic insight into the changing face of the neighboring communities of Stockton and Norton on Tees over the last century. Each image is accompanied by a detailed caption, bringing the past to life and describing many aspects of life in the area, including chapters on work, industry, and transport, as well as providing a vital record of vanished vistas and past practices. Norton, a settlement since Saxon times, was once the leading center before Stockton rose to world fame, along with Darlington, as the termini of the world s first railway. "Around Stockton and Norton" is sure to bring back cherished memories of yesteryear for all who know and love this part of Cleveland." |
