Item description from seller

Following the success of Aspects of the Yorkshire Coast, Alan Whitworth has assembled a further collection of pinpoint observations on the history of the area. The geographical span of this edition is from Whitby to Bridlington and includes contributions covering such diverse subjects as Holy Wells and Murder by Smugglers, to an eastern potentate living in Whitby, with his elephants, and the rise and fall of the great East Coast Fishing Fleets.There is the story of the problem of what to do with a dead whale stranded on the shore and the growth of Bridlington as a holiday resort alongside Victorian Whitby.This book is a veritable treasure trove of information spanning the period from Medieval to present times, complete with a wealth of previously unpublished illustrations.For holidaymaker or dedicated historian, this book cannot help but enthrall and inform its readers. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Store description

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we’re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.…
