Hackney in Old Photographs

In Trevor Hickman's new book Leicester's fascinating history is the theme, but as in The Best of East Leicestershire & Rutland he focuses on the sights that can be seen today.

Arranged as a walk around the city, the photographs illustrate the best of what Leicester has to offer: the cathedral and churches, markets, museums, pubs and hotels, and many hidden corners, which will surprise even long-term residents.

In this thought-provoking sequence of over 300 images, old and new, together with informed and entertaining captions, Trevor Hickman will inspire anyone who knows Leicester, as a resident or visitor, to explore the city a bit more thoroughly.
