This comprehensive work, illustrated with more than 130 images, provides a fascinating guide to the rich and varied history of one of the Midlands's youngest towns. In the early 19th century, a few scattered farms and cottages were all that could be seen on the site of what is now Crewe. However, the arrival of Grand Junction Railway heralded a new era, and Crewe was born. The settlement's rapid expansion meant that it soon became an important and vibrant town. This lavishly illustrated guide explores the town's development right up until the present day. With sections on local industries, education, religion, and recreation, all aspects of everyday life are discussed. Drawing on a wide variety of sources, and including a collection of recommended walks around the town, this detailed account is as fascinating as the location it describes and will appeal to residents and tourists alike.
