Queen's Park: A History
By Steve Crabb
()
About this ebook
Dismissed by planners in the 1950s as fit only for demolition and replacement with tower blocks, Queen’s Park is now one of London’s most vibrant and thriving communities: culturally diverse, with a vigorous campaigning spirit as well as being home to world-renowned actors, writers and musicians.
This is its story
From ancient Britain to the current day, defiant suffragettes to neo-Nazi arsonists, and First World War fighter aces to the Windrush generation, Queen’s Park: A History is a meticulously researched book that brings the past to life. Uncover mysteries, scandals, horrors and heroes – and discover how a London community ebbed and flowed to take the shape it has today.
