Synopsis
Manchester is the product of constant reinvention. A hybrid town resulting from historic global migrations where its unity today is in its diversity. It is a place of education, scientific enquiry, international trade, sport, music and leisure - a city of many passions. It has a spirit developed from a constant ability to embrace change and to look forward, a city that sets trends and has high ambitions. It has a special way of doing things - the Mancunian Way. This book reflects the spirit and place through photographs and text of the highest quality produced by people who live and breathe Manchester. Whether it is a photograph of the grand town hall, or a detail from a street market; whether it is a passage reflecting a writer's very personal view or a sentence from a taxi driver, stage doorman or artist - every piece has been carefully selected to do justice to the very essence of what makes Manchester the proud and exciting city it is today.
