From earliest records to the present day, the history of Coventry in one easy-to-read volume.
The Little History of Coventry packs into its pages the colour and incident of a thousand years, telling the story of a city that has perhaps been overlooked by mainstream historians but which has often been at the heart of this country’s great events.
From testing ground of the saintly Godiva to fourteenth century boom town, from Second World War Blitz victim to the next UK City of Culture, Coventry has always been an inventive place with an unerring ability to bounce back from misfortune and make its mark. This is a truly eye-opening journey through the events and characters that have shaped its story and made Coventry one of England’s hidden jewels.

Peter Walters is not a native of Coventry, but has lived in the city since 1979. A journalist for many years, then a city promotions manager, he now divides his time between writing, speaking at events and engaging in a wide range of community activities. He has written several books on the history of Coventry and is an active member of many local organisations.
