This is a fantastic book, especially for those who are fascinated by the history of Coventry.
Although it starts with the school boy error of beginning a sentence with ‘On a warm summer’s evening…’, this can easily be overlooked as you read on and discover stories about the people of the city and what happened to it during the war.
McGrory’s addition of his own personal family history gives something a little extra and makes it all that more special.
Anyone that lives in or knows the area will enjoy seeing pictures of Great War Coventry and trying to imagine the difference between then and now. Especially as so much has changed around the Broadgate area!
Detailed with some great photographs and documents, this is definitely a book you should have on your shelf, even if just for reference or sentimental value.
