Blackpool is Britain's favourite seaside resort. Each year millions of visitors come to walk on its three piers, ride donkeys, enjoy shows at the Winter Gardens, scream on the thrilling rides at the Pleasure Beach and ride the lift to the top of the Tower. Generations of holidaymakers have stayed in its hotels, lodging houses and bed and breakfasts and all have succumbed to its delectable fish and chips. Two centuries of tourism has left behind a rich heritage, but Blackpool has also inherited a legacy of social and economic problems, as well as the need for comprehensive new sea defences to protect the heart of the town. In recent years this has led to the transformation of its seafront and to regeneration programmes to try to improve the town, for its visitors and residents. This book celebrates Blackpool's rich heritage and examines how its colourful past is playing a key part in guaranteeing that it has a bright future.

Victorian Factory Life uncovers the lives of the men, women and children who worked in the factories of Victorian Britain, manufacturing everything from hats, cloth and dinner plates to beer and locomotives. Life in the Victorian factory was harsh, and factory employees, many of whom were children, working hard for six days a week in dangerous conditions. Generously illustrated with old photographs, artwork and pieces of ephemera, Victorian Factory Life is powerfully evocative of a past age of British working life and continues Shire's coverage of all aspects of Victorian life.
