Synopsis
'A rich, lively and nostalgia-provoking sensory experience ... this is history in its messiest, most bustling human essence' THE TIMES
'Like being in the company of a chatty, trusted friend' LUCY WORSLEY
'Impeccably researched and searingly nostalgic' DAILY MAIL
Bustling with rich detail, historical vignettes and surprising wares, this is the story of Britain's best-loved but ever-changing public spaces.
What makes a high street? It's not just the shopping; these are spaces where local life and culture unfold, the beating hearts of our towns and cities. From preserved medieval marketplaces to post-war concrete precincts, our high streets are playgrounds of personal indulgence, hubs for community spirit, sites of contentious debates and public politicking.
Join historian Annie Gray on an expedition down the street and through the ages, through arcades, department stores and backstreet shopping malls. Peeping through the windows of tailors, tea rooms and grocers, Gray writes an essential reflection on how we lived in days gone by - and what the future might bring.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. 'The queen of food historians' LUCY WORSLEY'Annie Gray leads the pack' JAY RAYNER A colourful history of one of our most loved and ever-changing public spacesThe modern-day cry is that the high street is dying. But are our present concerns so different from those of the past?Historian Annie Gray takes us down the street and through the ages, from medieval marketplaces to the purpose-built concrete precincts still standing today. Peeping inside the windows of tailors, tearooms and grocers, we explore everything from the toyshops of yesteryear - places where curiosities were sold for adults rather than children - to the birth of brands we still shop at today.Vibrant with historical detail and surprising wares, The Bookshop, The Draper, The Candlestick Maker is an essential reflection on how we shopped and lived in days gone by - and what the future may bring. A people's history of the high street Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781800812246
