The Sack of Bath is a fierce and angry polemic. Through words and photographs it is unashamedly outspoken, outraged and vituperative. The reason for the anger is as follows: in the 1960s local council officials in Bath took it upon themselves to draw up plans to demolish large swathes of artisan housing while retaining the set pieces such as the Royal Crescent. As a result, hundreds of small Georgian houses, of the kind that it is nowadays everyone's dream to live in, were brutally bulldozed.

Looking forward to reading this, caught it at Bendigo Lounge in Beeston where I'd come to go culvert hunting. Nice!

Fascinating historical document, and the photography of Bath past was thought-provoking.

Releasing this at the Alma Inn bookswap in Melbourne, Derbyshire. But where will it go next?
