Author Bio
Wakefield is an industrial town in West Yorkshire, on the very edge of the Pennines. It borders the textile towns to the south and east and from the nineteenth century its wealth was firmly based in the textiles and grain processing industry. Paul Dawson's new book brings together memories of the town over the last sixty or seventy years.
