This book contains the amazing and dramatic history of Liverpool. Beginning with the mysteries of the Druids and featuring astonishing tales of bloodshed, battles, the Black Death, and horrors from history including 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 color section on the infamous Maybrick poisoning), you’ll never look at local history in the same way again!
