Liverpool Tramways: Volume 1 - 1869-1932

This book is the first of two volumes of Liverpool's Tramways. In this volume the author, Richard Buckley, tells the story of the development of the city's tramways from the horse-drawn vehicles of the Victorian era through to the electric trams still operating in the early 1930s. The book is packed full of images. Many of these are of various city centre locations but outlying locations such as Waterloo, Great Crosby, Fazakerly, Bootle and Woolton are also featured. Although the inclusion of an outline fleet list and system maps make this a book for the tram enthusiast it also works as a book of old photographs of this Victorian city.
