Description
Mancunians: Where do we start, where do I begin? is a story about those who didn't fit the typecast in Manchester at the turn of the century. David Scott's book explores the city through the experiences of musicians of colour, football fans alienated by commercialism, frustrated public figures, optimistic developers, and ambitious artists.
Through a unique blend of memoir and interviews with well-known Mancunians, Scott portrays the city in a way that has never been seen before. With contributions from notable figures such as Guy Garvey, Tunde Babalola, Sylvia Tella, Badly Drawn Boy, and Stan Chow, this book offers a fresh perspective on Manchester's history.
Published in 2023, Mancunians: Where do we start, where do I begin? is a thought-provoking exploration of the city's identity and the people who shaped it.
