Soft cover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Paperback in tidy condition. Some creasing to the covers and minor edge-wear. No inscriptions or markings. The photographs in this selection, the fourth in the series to cover the Channel Islands, span around a century and tell the story of the island of Alderney from the 1850s to the present day. In addition, they are a vivid reminder of how everyday lives were led in former times - both in peace and war. Most have never been published before and modern residents, as well as Alderney's numerous visitors, will find much here that will surprise them. During the German occupation many family albums and official records were lost. Fortunately the commercial postcard photographers of the turn of the century were as active here as elsewhere and the local views produced by their studios have survived. Likewise, some of the pictures taken by the soldiers and sailors that made up the occupying forces have since been acquired by the island. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 027076
