Riassunto

Hove and Portslade Through Time is a unique insight into the illustrious history of this part of the country. Reproduced in full colour, this is an exciting examination of Hove and Portslade, the famous streets and the famous faces, and what they meant to the people of these towns throughout the 19th and into the 20th Century. Looking beyond the exquisite exterior of these well-kept photos, readers can see the historical context in which they are set, and through the author's factual captions for every picture and carefully-selected choice of images, the reader can achieve a reliable view of this area's history. Readers are invited to follow a timeline of events and watch the changing face of Hove and Portslade, as Judy Middleton guides us through their streets. There is something for everyone here, whether they have lived in the area all their lives, or whether they are just visiting these fabulous towns. It also shows how photography has continually evolved to keep up with an ever-changing society.
