The Man Who Found the Broads
Author: George Christopher Davies
Paperback
G. Christopher Davies was described in his obituary as "The man who found the broads" by Charles Carrodus, yachting coresponent for the Eastern Daily Press. He was acknowledged by his peers to be the first of the great Broads photographers and became a prolific writer. This is his first published biography. Much of his life, friends and contemporaries were the founding fathers of the twentieth century Norwich; a generation very largely responsible for the city as it is today. Featuring photographs dating from circa 1880 much of what he saw and photographed has either disappeared or changed out of all recognition. These are very old photographs dating from the infancy of the sience and art of photography so inevitably some have survived the ravages of time better than others.
