A Rich and Vivid History of Britain's Second City through the People Who Made It
Manchester, the vibrant and cosmopolitan city of England, has a rich and vibrant history that has shaped the world. From its Roman fort of Mamucium to its role as the 'shock city of the Industrial Revolution,' Manchester has been a hub of innovation and hard work. It was here that the digital age began with the invention of the world's first stored-program computer, Baby. Manchester's political history is equally remarkable, with the Peterloo Massacre and Chartism as examples of pioneering movements. The city's spirited individuality is reflected in its artistic output, with famous figures such as Anthony Burgess, L.S. Lowry, Jeanette Winterson, Joy Division, and Oasis hailing from Manchester. This work of unrivaled authority and breadth tells the story of a changing place and its remarkable people, making it a must-read for anyone interested in British history.
