Book Synopsis Welwyn Garden City Past by : Tony Rook
Download or read book Welwyn Garden City Past written by Tony Rook and published by Phillimore. This book was released on 2001 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just over eighty years ago, when Ebenezer Howard, the 'inventor' of Welwyn Garden City, bought the land to build his 'new town', the area was a place of scattered farms and woodland. Though it took near half a century for Westminster to comprehend Howard's concept, its influence on town planning has been so great that its history is usually discussed uncritically. In this book, the distinguished archaeologist and historian, Tony Rook, who has researched around Welwyn for 40 years, throws new light on the history of the site, from pre-history to the present day.

Book Synopsis A History of 20th Century Britain by : Andrew Marr
Download or read book A History of 20th Century Britain written by Andrew Marr and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2011-12-02 with total page 1437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the death of Queen Victoria and the turn of the Millennium, Britain has been utterly transformed by an extraordinary century of war and peace. A History of 20th Century Britain collects together for the first time Andrew Marr's two bestselling volumes A History of Modern Britain and The Making of Modern Britain. Together, they tell the story of how the country recovered from the grand wreckage of the British Empire only to stumble into a series of monumental upheavals, from World Wars to Cold Wars and everything in between. In each decade, political leaders thought they knew what they were doing, but found themselves confounded. Every time, the British people turned out to be stroppier and harder to herd than predicted. This wonderfully entertaining history follows all the political and economic stories, but deals too with the riotous colour of an extraordinary century: a century of trenches, flappers and Spitfires; of comedy, punks, Margaret Thatcher’s wonderful good luck, and the triumph of shopping over idealism.
