Aimed at visitors and residents alike, this companion to the history of Coventry is an indispensable reference guide to the long, varied and sometimes surprising story of the town. Essential information on the people, places and events that played key roles in the story is presented in a convenient A to Z format. Famous and notorious individuals are portrayed here, dramatic, sometimes tragic events are remembered, and familiar local myths and legends are explored. The volume is a source of fascinating insights into Coventry's past and should provide answers to frequently asked historical questions - the whos, wheres and whys that make up the rich history of the city.

It is 5 stars from me for this one, I liked the layout and the amount of detail and the number of facts that were crammed into the pages. There were a few images too which broke up the text and helped illustrate some of the points – I really enjoyed it and it has made me carry out a bit of my own research too after I was highly inspired to want to find out more – highly recommended!
