Synopsis

Wharncliffe Books are delighted to present 'Barnsley Streets - Volume 4'. This is the fourth, and final, volume of the revised and already popular series. The volumes use the original material from the 9 volumes of the now highly collectable 'Barnsley Streets', published in the 1970s by E G Tasker. The work is then brought into the present century with the inclusion of up-to-date photographs. The name of Edward Tasker is synonymous with the history of Barnsley and his photographic record of the town is the yardstick by which all other similar publications are measured. The books contain detailed information of the occupation of each property and photographs of town centre streets. This final volume includes all original material plus updated text and current photographs. As a result of the close co-operation between the Tasker Trust and Barnsley Public Libraries Archive Department, Wharncliffe Books can offer this complete and final volume, 'Barnsley Streets - Volume 4'. The ultimate history of Barnsley Streets would not be complete without 'Barnsley Streets - Volume 4'.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Mr E G Tasker was born in Lincolnshire and served during the Second World War as a radiographer. After the war he opened a photographic dealers shop in New Street, Barnsley where he built up a large collection of prints and slides. In 1960, when changes in Barnsley were beginning to take shape, he began to record the buildings in the centre of town and also research who had occupied the properties during the last hundred years. In the 1970s the collection of over 1,000 photographs of Barnsley Streets past and present, plus the details of the occupants were reproduced in 9 volumes of Barnsley Streets .
