This fascinating book of over 130 photographs depicts scence, people and events from everyday life in and around Lee-on-the-Solent, from the beginning of the century to more recent times.

This book includes maky of Lee-on-the-Solent's well known landmarks including Lee Tower, the pier, H.M.S. Daedalus and the Pier Hotel. The people of Lee are captured at work, at school and at play. We see photographs of traders and businesses, including Messrs Hern and Barlow, proprietors of the high class grocery store, and the elegant Thirties-style premises of Smeed & Smeed's off-licence.

The book will appeal to all who have grown up in Lee-on-the-Solent but also to those who are newcomers or of a younger generation who would like to see what their town was like only a few decades ago.
