Product Description

Product Description

Norwich - Street by Street is a fresh look at the history of Norwich that uses the streets of the old city as its starting point. If you've ever wondered how the streets of the old city got their names, and how they grew up and developed over the years, then you will find that information here, along with countless other fascinating details about the businesses and people that shaped the life of the city, the dramatic events that took place on Norwich's streets throughout history, and the many attractive and interesting buildings that line the highways and byways of the streets within the Inner Ring Road. By trawling through old directories, old copies of newspapers and library archives, Pamela Brooks has uncovered a wealth of detail about Norwich's past that will make essential reading for anyone with an interest in local history. Her lively and readable approach to the material mean that the book is sure to be popular, and it is beautifully illustrated with images from the council's archives and more modern scenes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb read - Very highly recommended, 17 Nov 2004
By D. Batute "bx16v" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book last Christmas, and what an enthralling book it is, filled with short stories, covering a wide range of settings & events in history.

I would say this would appeal more to a local (I was born there) but a non local would still find it a very interesting read.

Being able to visualise some of the places she writes about is a fairly big aid though.

5.0 out of 5 stars Norwich Stories of a City, 14 Sep 2003
By Mbwest "margaretbwest" (Norwich England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I feel I must say a big "Thank You" to Pamela Brooks for her very readable Book called "Norwich Stories of a City". Every Norfolk person should be interested in such a Book - its very factual - but easy to read. I have really enjoyed reading this book. Also I feel that this Book should be in every Norfolks school library as its about the past and one of two chapters of today. I shall be looking out for any of her Books in the future. Thank you once again for a very good read.
