Seller's Description
ARMCHAIR TIME TRAVELLERS GUIDE: MAPS & SKETCHES FROM GEORGIAN & EARLY VICTORIAN BIRMINGHAM by Paul Leslie Line & Adrian Baggett.
Buildings are memorials to our town,
They tell a history none should forgot,
Their destruction is a cause for regret,
Ancient landmarks honoured for their renown,
A shared sadness when treasures are pulled down,
Collective consciousness, none can replace,
Spray can's smear of graffiti and defaced,
City of a thousand trades, they were our crown,
Demolished - and now not a brick remains.
Gone and they will never be seen again.
With poems by Ian Henery, Walsall Poet Laureat.
A FIRST EDITION hardback published by Mapsdeeker Archive Publishing (£29.99 r.r.p.) - In AS-NEW condition.
