Durham City

Durham City: Pictures from the Past is a new book that brings together over 450 photographs covering all aspects of life in and around the City of Durham. It is divided into 10 sections: Meet the People, School Days, Working Life, Sport and Leisure, The Built Environment, Events and Occasions, Transport, Defence of the Realm, Church and Chapel and Around Durham. Michael Richardson's books have created an open door into Durham's rich pictorial past, giving people an opportunity to explore their heritage further. His previous books have appealed to all sections of the community from academics to the man and woman in the street. Like Michael's previous books, this volume will no doubt become a treasured possession and provide continuous pleasure to all those who have an affection for the city and surrounding villages.
