Salisbury:
The Changing City
Bruce Purvis
A comprehensive study of the history of this Wiltshire
city from its earliest times. Bruce Purvis combines
in-depth research with a telling eye for detail and
a fantastic selection of illustrations from Wiltshire
Library and other archives. As well as tracing the
overlapping phases of Salisbury's distinctive history
– from mediaeval new town, to a centre of industry,
a tourist's paradise and, in recent years, the service
economy – he offers a selection of intriguing
tours of the material history which survives here.
