Leeds Then and Now
A Photographic Record of the 20th Century Buildings of Leeds
This best selling book by Brian Godward marks the Millennium by providing a prestige record of the major new buildings constructed in the centre of Leeds during the 20th Century. It takes the form of colour photographs of the new buildings alongside a photograph of the building or site which it replaced. These former photographs come from the Leeds Civic Trust's extensive library of Old Leeds. It will appeal to those who have a nostalgia for things old and also to those who want a record of architectural development in Leeds in this century. The book contains about 160 photographs, mostly in colour. It is a book all those who have an interest in Leeds and its buildings will want to have and give to their friends.
