Whitley
Bay: Past and Present
John Alexander
Whitley Bay is steeped in history. It started as
a basic seaside resort, which at its peak saw train
loads of people flocking to town for their holidays.
But time waits for no man, nor town, and toward the
end of the last century, Whitley Bay sadly became
known more for the buildings it was losing to mass
demolition schemes, than the wonderful seaside place
it used to be.
In his second book on the town, local journalist
and author John Alexander, shows Whitley Bay from
its early days, right up to the present.
You will be amazed at what has been lost over the
years due to so-called modernisation.
With over 400 pictures, Whitley Bay: Past and
Present,
is sure to be a hit with locals and tourists alike
and will become a book that you will treasure and
hand down through the generations.
