Description
Queen's Park A History by Steve Crabb is a meticulously researched book that brings to life the story of this London community. From ancient Britain to the current day, the park has been shaped by a diverse range of people and events. The history of Queen's Park is one of contrasts - from being dismissed as a site for demolition in the 1950s to becoming one of London's most vibrant communities today. This book uncovers the mysteries, scandals, horrors and heroes that have contributed to its development, including the experiences of suffragettes, First World War fighter aces, and members of the Windrush generation. Through its pages, Queen's Park A History reveals how this community has ebbed and flowed over time, taking on new forms and identities. This is a fascinating and informative book that sheds light on a lesser-known corner of London's history.
