Description

Manchester has undergone significant changes over the last 100 years. From its origins as a Lancashire market town, the city was transformed by the Industrial Revolution, becoming the world's first industrialised city. The construction of the Manchester Ship Canal in the nineteenth century further shaped the city's growth and development. A remarkable collection of old photographs, compiled by Eric Krieger, provides a unique visual record of the city's evolution. Although many landmarks have remained unchanged, these images show the city adapting and evolving, with new buildings replacing old ones and the pattern of life in the city changing over time. This collection of images will be of interest to those who have lived in Manchester or know it well, as well as to visitors to the area. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the city's past and its transformation over the last century.
