Coventry Through Time

Summary

Coventry remembers the night of the Blitz, when many people lost their lives, lovely old buildings were destroyed, and the magnificent St Michael's, Coventry's cathedral, was burnt to the ground. Jacqueline Cameron shows, through old and new photographs, just how this iconic city has risen from these ashes. This full colour book is a fascinating journey around the area, illustrating the changes that have taken place. Consider the beautiful new cathedral, and the revitalised city and you will realize that Coventry might have suffered badly in the Second World War but its spirit had not been killed, the heart of the city beats as strong as ever. It is hoped that, with Coventry Through Time, the readers can see for themselves just how the planners have given the people of Coventry a city to be proud of.
