Described by the reviewer in World's Fair
newspaper as "one of the most detailed histories of a showland family I have
read", The Story of Harris's Fun Fairs is a detailed history of this showland family
dating back to 1774 and including Thurston, Gray, Norman, Freeman Biddall, Thompson, Shaw
families etc. Brief family trees are included. The
224 A4 pages are packed with 242 black & white photos and 171 colour photos, most of
which seeing their first time in print. This should interest the fairground enthusiast,
the showman, and the local historian. |
