Description
Description
Focusing on Manchester's mills and warehouses, its main trading institution (the Royal Exchange), its magnificent Gothic Revival Town Hall, and its late Gothic Revival Rylands Library, this book explores these iconic buildings alongside paintings, prints, maps, and photographs of the city from the mid-18th century to the 1920s. Crinson provides analysis of buildings and images, urban spaces and new institutions, technology and industrial pollution, all products of Manchester's newly emergent industrial middle classes.
