Description
Southampton's hidden history is revealed in this book, exploring the city's lesser-known past. From the medieval wine vaults beneath the streets to the Old Admiralty Gallows and other sites of public executions, the author uncovers the city's fascinating and often grisly past. The book delves into the city's strategic importance, its role in the Second World War, and the people who shaped its history, including notable figures such as General Rosas and Admiral Jellicoe.
