Beschreibung
There are now over 25 books published as part of the Aspects Series, each one taking readers on a voyage of nostalgic discovery through their town, city or area. Here Birmingham, once "e;The Workshop of the Empire"e; is revealed in twelve studies of the city and its people. Here we find "e;Birmingham Municipal Bank"e;, the only successful council operated bank and "e;Lesser Known Characters"e; about the city. We see the work of the "e;Birmingham Mission"e; and "e;Birmingham Children's Emigration Homes"e;. During the troubled 1930's, Birmingham held a "e;Great Pageant"e; and as war clouds gathered over Europe, the city's young men fought in "e;The Spanish Civil War"e;. All this and so much more is available in this, the first Aspects of Birmingham.
