	The Illustrated History of Liverpool's Suburbs The Illustrated History of Liverpool's Suburbs is the first single-volume history of the development of the residential areas of the city. The author chronicles the growth of the suburbs from the early 19th century and illuminates the lives of people who lived in them. His fascinating book will appeal to anyone with an interest in the story of Liverpool. The narrative is illustrated with more than 200 photographs, drawings and maps from Liverpool Record Office - most of which have never been published before. David Lewis shows how the countryside, farms and villages developed into the urban streets, residential areas, shopping districts and industrial estates that are so familiar today. In the course of the last 150 years, the outskirts of the city have been transformed, and they have expanded, in a way that would astonish Liverpool residents of just a few generations ago. In this detailed and fully illustrated account of the suburbs, the author offers a concise history of each district. He also features local anecdotes and folklore and recalls remarkable episodes and notable individuals who played their part in the story. David Lewis's fascinating survey will be essential reading and reference for Liverpool residents, past and present, who take an interest in their neighbourhood and in the complex, surprising history of the city itself.

	The Official Liverpool FC Illustrated History League champions 18 times, FA Cup winners six times and League Cup winners six times. It's a record that makes Liverpool the most successful English Club. In Europe the tally is also huge: UEFA Cup winners four times and European Cup winners a massive four times. To look at the players that have worn the famous red shirt is to wander through a historical who's who of world football: the story of Liverpool Football Club is rich in success and glory, but it is also rich in tradition: the famous bootroom ethic permeates every corridor of the Club; the Kop, despite its modernisation into an all-seater stand, still offers a fanatical support that, many claim, is worth a goal start. Price: £17.50 Publication: September 20, 2004

Liverpool books: Biographies

The Boys from the Mersey: The Story of Liverpool's Annie Road End Crew Football's First Clobbered-up Mob Nicky Allt was a penniless teenager from the tough Kirkby district of Liverpool who wanted something more, when no one would employ him. In the late seventies that meant clothes, music and Liverpool FC. He joined a young scallywag crew who dressed different, spoke different and met at the Anfield Road End. Their travels would become legend as the Reds conquered Europe. The Road Enders were a bunch of blaggers and fighters to whom every No Entry sign was a challenge and every price tag a joke. They criss-crossed the continent, causing havoc in their wake - and had a whale of a time. Price: £11.19 Publication: March 2004
