Here is the LOATHSOME, LURID and DOWNRIGHT LAMENTABLE history of Liverpool! Beginning with the mysteries of the Druids and featuring astonishing tales of bloodshed, battles and the Black Death, Viking assaults, Victorian gangland riots, the mud, blood and bullets of the Western Front and the falling bombs of the Blitz, read it if you dare! With more than 70 illustrations (plus a grim and gruesome colour section on the infamous Maybrick poisoning), you'll never look at the city in the same way again!
