Walks Through History: Liverpool

by David Lewis - £12.99  DB Publishing (2012)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781780911205 | ISBN 10: 1780911203

This book of Liverpool walks is a guidebook to the city's odd corners, and a practical handbook of urban exploration.
 
Nearly eight centuries of history have left their mark on Liverpool in street names and stories, from the breezy hill at Everton and the salty industry of the docks, to the grandeur of the city centre and the wide green spaces of Sefton Park.
 
Exploring the city on foot shows us things invisible to the bus passenger hurrying to work; cast-iron street lamps on cobble back streets, ornate fountains, quiet pubs, crumbling Gothic churches and medieval stonework. In this book there are walks finding the hidden history and architecture of the city centre, family walks through Liverpool's wealth of parks and gardens, and journeys through the older industrial city for the serious urban explorer.
 
Detailed directions are given, along with bus and train routes to and from the walks, convenient stopping or resting places and suggested diversions or alternatives.
