Sobre IBD

This book tells the story of Sutton Coldfield between 1800 and 1914.  With a focus on the struggles to bring to an end the self-appointed corporation, the arrival of the railway, shops, schools, law and order and leisure, it is a work of social history.  During the period that this book covers, Sutton was transformed beyond any origins asa mere suburb of Birmingham.  It could fairly be said that more of consequence happened in Sutton in the nineteenth century than any preceding century, including the sixteenth century when Bishop Vesey secured a royal charter.  The book includes many contemporary images.
