內容簡介
內容簡介 Britain Yesterday & Today takes a nostalgic look at every aspect of British life over the past 150 years. By contrasting beautiful black-and-white images with colour photographs, it presents the amazing social changes that make Britain what it is today. From sport and leisure to the workplace, from the countryside to the city and from shore to shore, Britain Yesterday & Today transports you through time with more than 150 photographs and illuminating commentary. Reflecting on great royal occasions, national obsessions and unique events, as well as changes to urban areas and the impact of technology, this is a delightful look at Britain past and present.
