David Trumper is one of Shropshire's best-known historians. He has written at least one book on the county each year for the last two decades, forming an incredible collection of illustrated local history that celebrates Shropshire life over the last century.

This nostalgic collection, published over twenty years after his first book on the town, draws on his two decades of research and presents the finest images from those collections as a special single volume that will delight both visitors and residents alike.
