Bücher von L. Anne Hull

This book was first published in 2010 and was subject to an extremely limited run. Anne has kindly given Heritage Publications permission to bring this important and fascinating book to a wider audience. Darwen in its Hey Day picks up where Darwen and its People, also published by Heritage Publications, finished off. It tells of life and history of the town from the 1890s and all the way through to World War One. The period was a great time of prosperity and growth for the town in which the population boomed and its iconic Tower was opened to the public. In this short period of time there was the death of Queen Victoria and of King Edward VII, two Coronations and one Royal Visit. The people of Darwen were eager to celebrate royal occasions and commemorate them in various ways.
