Old Carlisle is a superb selection of photographs, illustrating the extraordinary transformation of Carlisle throughout the twentieth century - a period of unprecedented change. The reader is offered a fascinating insight not only into the daily lives and living conditions of the local people but also into many aspects of Carlisle's past and more recent history. Famous occasions and individuals are remembered and the impact of national and international events is considered. This charming book draws on a wealth of detailed knowledge of the community and its photographs, accompanied by factual captions, perfectly recall all that Carlisle has lost in terms of buildings, traditions and ways of life. It goes on to acknowledge the regeneration that has taken place and celebrates the character and energy of the local people as they move forward in this century.
