Synopsis

The reappearance of this classic book on Exeter will be welcomed by all those who know and love the city. On first publication over a quarter of a century ago, this stunning collection of photographs of the city sold out in a matter of days, and has now become highly sought after. Based largely on historic photographs from the Isca Collection, supported by a text by the late Jacqueline Warren who contributed articles on the city for the "Express & Echo" for many years, the book is now a timepiece, charting the changes made to the face of the city from medieval times through to the rebuilding during the post-war era. Over 400 photographs reveal whole areas of the city as it used to be, with fascinating pictures of individual buildings and whole streets swept away by the bombs of Hitler and the pens of over-enthusiastic planners. At a time when the city is facing exciting new development, the timely re-issuing of this book will be greatly welcomed.
