  This book is one of a series featuring line drawings keyed to the text, narrative and stage-by-stage illustrations to depict the development of a town through the centuries. Each book features a reconstruction of the history of an imaginary town in a different part of the world, having a distinctive character that relates to the region in which it is situated. This book deals with a seaport in Northern Europe. It takes the reader on a journey through the centuries, tracing the port's development from a Bronze Age settlement to a thriving trading centre and to its rebuilding following World War II devastation.
