Description
Book SynopsisThe latest revised volume in the Pevsner Architectural Guides, covering Birmingham and the towns and settlements of the Black Country
Trade Review“Each revision of the Pevsner architectural guides — with their copious additional details and superb colour photography — opens readers' eyes to what should have been obvious...Seldom has this been more evident than with the latest volume,
Birmingham and the Black Country.”—Simon Heffer,
The Daily Telegraph“A tirelessly comprehensive book…[This is] a city of rich oddities and pleasingly bewildering contrasts.”—Jonathan Meades,
The Oldie "The updated Buildings of England series get better and better, but Andy Foster's Birmingham and the Black Country is especially worthy of celebration...It is fair to say that it is a region that has rarely been the focus of sustained admiration, so much of the contents are revelatory...The book is a triumph."—Otto Saumarez Smith, Friends of Friendless Churches
