| Publisher Description: Illustrated with around 200 archive photographs, this absorbing book captures the commercial heritage of the city and offers a unique glimpse into Birmingham's past. Like most big cities Birmingham has lost many of its family-owned shops, department stores, and co-ops in recent decades. Capturing the diversity of Birmingham's shops and markets, this book provides an important record of life in the city as it used to be that will fascinate anyone who knows the area. |
