Beschreibung:
Siobhan Begley is an associate of the Centre for Urban History and also a teacher of English for Academic Purposes. Siobhan was an undergraduate at Leicester in the 1970s, and her interest in and love of the city dates from that time. She recently completed a PhD at the Centre for Urban History at the University of Leicester. This is Siobhan's first book.
The Story of Leicester traces the evolution of this remarkable city. Industrialisation and population growth radically changed Leicester during Victorian times and it became prosperous, its economy underpinned by the hosiery, boot and shoe and engineering industries - the basis of modern Leicester.
