In the nineteenth century, Ilkley prospered as an inland spa resort. During the war years the grand hydros and hotels were adapted for war-time uses; hostels for evacuees and bases for government offices and the military. This book describes how Ilkley, Burley and Menston adapted to all the changing circumstances of a community at war.
