Central Leeds through time

Chrystal, Paul2016
Book
The city of Leeds, self-proclaimed 'Capital of the North', has come a long way since its early developments during the Industrial Revolution into a major area for the production and trade of wool, engineering and printing to name but a few of its former industries. As a key contender to London, with its legal and financial services, Leeds is also a city with wide variety of entertainment, arts and culture and a thriving university student hub. This book charts the city's development through a collection of fascinating photographs, old and new, that help to illustrate its appeal, not only to those wanting to get to know it better, but also to long-time residents who thought they knew all about their own city.
