Rezension zu „Camden Lock and the Market “
'Full of both character and characters...If you know the market well, and witnessed much of its short but eventful history, you will savour every sentence, and simply must buy this book.' The Londonist 'Lovely archival photography of Camden denizens throughout the years... Anyone with fond memories of the market will enjoy the results.' Amateur Photographer 'A story of blood, sweat and tears.' Travel GBI 'Davies manages a cast of key characters who she weaves throughout the book to illustrate the changes in the area. From internationally famous names such as Wayne Hemingway to more local legends such as June Carroll, who opened the first food outlet at the market, Davies blends together their own history and anecdotes with a traditional linear explanation of what was happening and when and where. She highlights the music, fashion, crafts and food, and with over150 archive images, so even if somehow you've never been, it's easy to transport yourself through time to what was a 'hippy haven', 'cradle of design', 'multi-cultural melting pot' and an urban outlier in terms of how to regenerate an area, providing employment and opportunities for all.' The Kentishtowner 'This is a bright, colourful publication about a bright, colourful canalside attraction. Well-written and beautifully illustrated if you're interested in learning more about the north London site, or if you are planning a visit and want to carry out some prior research, this book should provide you with all you need.'
