Description

Liverpool A Landscape History by Martin Greaney explores how the landscape has shaped the history of Liverpool and Merseyside. From the ice age glaciers that carved out the Rivers Mersey and Dee, to the modern city's layout, this book reveals the intricate relationship between the land and its inhabitants. The changing city is charted from earliest times to the present day, explaining why Liverpool looks the way it does today and how clues in the modern landscape provide insights into its long history. The book shows how the landscape created Liverpool, and how in turn, the city has recreated the landscape over time. By examining the land and its transformations, this book offers a unique perspective on the development of one of the UK's most fascinating cities.
