Om denne bog
The Staffordshire city of Lichfield has a wealth of history, much of which is reflected in its many historic buildings and landmarks. Famous as the birthplace of the esteemed writer Dr Samuel Johnson, other notable people who lived in the city were the eighteenth-century actor and playwright David Garrick and Erasmus Darwin, the grandfather of Charles Darwin.In Lichfield: A Potted History, author and local tour guide Teresa Gilmore takes readers on a fascinating exploration of the city’s history through the centuries. What was there before the city was established in the seventh century with the arrival of St Chad? Why did he choose this location? Why was it so heavily contested over during the English Civil War? And how did it grow and develop into the thriving, modern cathedral city we have today? Answers to these questions, and many more, can be found within these pages.Illustrated throughout, this engaging and informative portrait will be of great interest to residents, visitors and all those with links to the city.
