Book Description
Did you know? In 1939 the famous Illumination lights were set up but never switched on, due to the outbreak of the Second World War. High winds can make the Blackpool Tower sway up to an inch. Blackpool can boast some of the best examples of Victorian architecture in Britain. From the momentous to the outlandish, this book is packed full of fun facts and trivia about everything to do with the self-styled 'Vegas of the North'. Much more than a tourist guide, residents too will discover things they never knew about the town. Facts, history, humour; it's all here in this engaging little book.

Book Description
Blackpool was the world's first and biggest working class seaside resort. As such, it has been a powerful generator of myths, tall stories, stereotypes, and novelties for over a century. This book sets the myths against the evidence.

Book Description
This revised and updated edition of A History of Horrors traces the life and 'spirit' of Hammer, from its fledgling days in the late 1940s through its successes of the 1950s and '60s to its decline and eventual liquidation in the late 1970s. With the exclusive participation of all of the personnel who were key to Hammer's success, Denis Meikle paints a vivid and fascinating picture of the rise and fall of a film empire, offering new and revealing insights into 'the truth behind the legend.' Much has been written about Hammer's films, but this is the only book to tell the story of the company itself from the perspective of those who ran it in its heyday and who helped to turn it into a universal byword for terror on the screen.
