The Story of Coventry by Peter Walters
The Story of Coventry traces the evolution of the city, from the myths of Godiva, through to the issues, challenges and opportunities facing it in the twenty-first century. Exploring Coventry's heritage through records, architectural developments and anecdotes, it reveals a fascinating and much misunderstood city, whose history is often overshadowed by its bombing during the Second World War. Peter Walters, well known for his numerous newspaper features and active role in local heritage, shows that there is a great deal more to the history of Coventry than first meets the eye. This beautifully illustrated text will delight both residents and visitors alike.
PETER WALTERS is not a native of Coventry, but has lived in the city since 1979. A journalist for many years, then a city promotions manager, he now divides his time between writing, speaking at events and engaging in a wide range of community activities. He has written several books on the history of Coventry and is an active member of many local organisations.
