The Lancashire city of Preston has a rich and enthralling history. This book recalls its people, places and past times. Once a booming cotton-manufacturing centre, Preston made great advances in industry and commerce as it transformed from a cotton town to a university city. It is apparent why the city rightly earned the title ‘Proud Preston’, considering its achievements.
Local author Keith Johnson takes the reader on a fascinating A–Z tour of the city’s history, exploring its nooks and crannies, and along the way relating many tales of its fascinating people and places. Fully illustrated with photographs from the past and present, A-Z of Preston will appeal to residents and visitors alike.
