Solid oversize paperback. ; Photographs by Thomas Hibberd James: "An amateur photographer and keen local historian, he made a unique and very personal record of his home town of Southampton 90 years ago. He took his photographs meticulously; selecting the view, the buildings and the people as carefully as if he was painting a picutre. The photographs are full of little stories and even jokes. To-day the galss plates on which James took his photographs are in the Southampton Museums and it is the Museums' senior keeper, Adrian Rance, who has compiled this delightful book with affection and care to detail that Thomas Hibberd James would have surely appreciated." ; 80 pages.
