Bibliography

To compliment the architectural tours, we have provided a select example of excellent books that are both informative and illuminating about the city and indeed the Northwest region. The publications are not solely focused on architectural issues, but also include diverse topics that focus on the people, music, and significant events that have shaped Manchester’s unique identity. You can purchase these publications and many others from the CUBE bookshop, or alternatively Waterstones in the city. However, you could also purchase these publications online at Amazon www.amazon.co.uk
