The book explores Peterborough's history from the seventh century, describing its destruction by Danish raiders and its restoration with a new abbey. It remained a small market city until the 19th century when it changed, dramatically, into a railway and industrial centre.
" There is great capacity for further reading but this lavish, and always interesting book makes an excellent starter." Rutland Times
