Bristol: A people's history

Peter Aughton


Many excellent and detailed studies have been published in the last fifty years but this is the first full history of Bristol to appear in two generations. The influence and history of Bristol extend well beyond her neighbourhood. The city played a major part in the discovery and colonisation of America; she has been a great centre of industry; as well as being one of the world's leading mercantile ports. She still retains a strong nautical atmosphere and the old-world charm of an ancient English city.

Well illustrated with over 150 images, old and new, along with fascinating maps and a beautiful colour section, this book will appeal to Bristolians everywhere.
