Illustrated with photographs, drawing and adverts, the author presents his memories of Wakefield, an industrial town in West Yorkshire. Different themes are explored: church and chapel, education, leisure and recreation, wartime, business and industry, and growing up.
Wakefield is an industrial town in West Yorkshire, on the very edge of the Pennines. It borders the textile towns to the south and east and from the nineteenth century its wealth was firmly based in the textiles and grain processing industry. Paul Dawson's new book brings together memories of the town over the last sixty or seventy years.
