Description

Bedfordshire Through Time offers a unique glimpse into the county's rich history through captivating period photographs. Sourced from the Sandy Chrystal postcard collection at Bedfordshire & Luton Archives & Records Service, these images have been published for the first time and provide an accessible insight into the many changes that have taken place over decades. Contrasting modern colour pictures are juxtaposed with extracts from guidebooks and historical publications from the early 20th century, offering a fascinating glimpse into the county's heritage. Despite the modernisation of major towns like Luton and Bedford, much of Bedfordshire's heritage remains intact, making this book a treasure trove for those interested in local history. With over 90 photographs and extracts from historical publications, Bedfordshire Through Time is an engaging and informative book that showcases the county's past.
