Condition: As new. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st edition. Nearly new, with dust jacket and published in Lancaster (not Preston). Signed by the first author. The Portico Library is one of Manchester's historic cultural institutions, founded in 1806 in a neoclassical building designed by the distinguished architect Thomas Harrison. An early subscription library, many of the Portico's books have seen better days, Manchester's heavily polluted atmosphere in the 19th century having devoured the leather bindings; and unlike the Liverpool Athenaeum, which has both a fine library and dining facilities, the books take centre stage. Definitely a book for the bibliophile. vi, 151 pp. Weight: 1.0 Language: English Hard covers, dust jacket in protective plastic sleeve.…

In its manifold forms from the newsreel to the 'feature', it is a major source of evidence for, and an important influence upon, contemporary history, and a vivid means of bringing the recent past to life. For earlier periods, it provides a medium in which the often widely dispersed visual evidences of the past can be brought together for the student. It offers the historian a new form in which to interpret and present his subject, and, as television has shown, it is by far the most important vehicle for the presentation of history to mass audiences. The analysis of its content and impact and the exploration of its uses are especially fitted to bring history into an interdisciplinary relationship with other fields, from sociology to the visual arts." ; VG.
