Stanley, South Moor & Craghead Through Time is a unique insight into the illustrious history of this part of the country. Reproduced in full colour, this is an exciting illustration of how Stanley, South Moor and Craghead grew from small hamlets into what they are today in the space of just a few decades and of how those changes affected the local communities. Looking beyond the exquisite exterior of these well-kept photos, readers can see the historical context in which they are set, and through the author's factual captions for every picture, and carefully-selected choice of images, the reader can achieve a reliable view of the area's history. There is something for everyone here, whether they have lived here all their lives, or whether they are just visiting for the first time. Stanley, South Moor & Craghead Through Time also shows how photography has continually evolved to keep up with an ever changing society.
