| Description: |
In these days of call centres and automation the traditional working man is rarely seen, but in the heyday of industrial Britain he filled the streets when factory whistles blew, rode in cages at the mines, lined the road and rail network of the country. In this book this endangered species is celebrated in images. |
| Synopsis: |
This is a visual tribute to the 20th Century, with photographs from PA Photos. It covers the hundred years that saw the rise and decline of the traditional working man. It is a beautiful gift idea, alone or part of this invaluable series. In these days of call centres and automation the traditional working man is rarely seen, but in the heyday of industrial Britain he filled the streets when factory whistles blew, rode in cages at the mines, lined the road and rail network of the country, leaned on shovels at every corner and supported a thriving trade in the flat cap. In this fascinating book this endangered species is celebrated in images, from PA Photos, covering the hundred years that saw his rise and decline. Guaranteed to provoke many 'When I was a lad...' reminiscences. |
