This absorbing collection of photographs, containing many rare and unpublished images of Poole, illustrates the changes that have been seen in this picturesque seaside town as it has evolved over the years. Featuring scenes from work and home life to the town centre and the harbour, Poole Past & Present presents archive photographs alongside modern images taken from the same viewpoint. Accompanied by informative captions, this title will interest both long-time residents and new visitors to the town. Compiled by the authors of two previous books about the town, both long-term residents of Poole who have witnessed many of the changes for themselves, this volume will evoke feelings of nostalgia in all who know and love this area of Dorset.
