  • Waterstones Echoes of the Merseyside Blitz

    Price: £14.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: Merseyside has a long and varied history, one which its sons and daughters are justifiably proud. It has come through many struggles, but perhaps its darkest hour was the air raids that were launched against it in 1940 and 1941. Around 4,000 people lost their lives and many prominent buildings and houses were destroyed or damaged beyond repair. All of this occurred in the space of just 18 months, a period which changed the face of the region irrevocably. Using a variety of new sources Echoes of the Merseyside Blitz draws together a timeline of the blitz for the whole region, showing at a glance what was happening on any given night during that period. Taking carefully selected photographs, Neil Holmes tells the story of Merseyside s blitz through a series of ghost photographs, where historic wartime images are blended with their modern counterpart to create a fascinating window in to Merseyside s past.

  • Waterstones Merseyside Transport

    Price: £14.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: Merseyside can claim, with some justification, to have provided the transport enthusiast with a greater variety of transport modes than anywhere else in Britain. By the 1950s, with many long-standing scenes about to disappear, photographers began faithfully to record what they saw in colour. It is these images, including road, rail, sea and other modes of transport, that illustrate this nostalgic pictorial portrait of key aspects of the richly varied scene. Taking the reader on a journey from Liverpool and its suburbs to Birkenhead and Wallasey, with one small detour to include views of the remarkable Runcorn Transporter Bridge, this book gives a full-colour view of the historic transport that was part of the Merseyside townscape from the 1950s to the 1970s.

  • Waterstones Arriva Merseyside Buses

    Price: £15.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: Arriva Merseyside was created in 2000, when Arriva purchased MTL Trust Holdings, becoming and remaining the largest operator in the Liverpool City region and providing approximately 70 per cent of the bus services in the area. The acquisition moved Arriva North West from depots situated in just Bootle and Runcorn to include Birkenhead, Gillmoss, Green Lane, Huyton, Southport, Speke and St Helens. In this book Simon Ackers looks at the changing profile of the Arriva Merseyside fleet. From the ex-London Titans and ex-PTE Atlanteans to nearly all single-deck vehicles preceding a return to double-deck purchases and hybrid and zero-emission buses. With informative comments accompanying each image, the reader can reminisce and travel through over twenty years of operation.
