A vivid collection of historic photographs offering a nostalgic and insightful glimpse into the changing heart of central Cardiff.
This second selection of photographs by Brian Lee depicting the historic central area of Cardiff further illustrates the diversity and interest of the area.
The book follows the lead of the first, taking in the shops, businesses, streets and buildings of central Cardiff, as well as the Castle and Civic Centre. It is able to look in more detail at the historic and incidental events of Cardiff. Taking in the Empire Swimming Pool, the Arms Park as well as the South Wales Echo and Western Mail offices, it provides an invaluable addition to the series.
This endearing collection provides an unparalleled insight into Central Cardiff and gives a glimpse of the streets of a city centre so well known to so many.
