Manchester at War Now is your chance to discover how the people of Manchester worked together to overcome World War Two.

The Manchester Evening News has launched its latest look back in history with the second edition of Manchester at War.

The hardback book, priced £14.99, has been released just in time for Christmas and it is your chance to relive the difficult period between 1930 and 1950.

Using an excellent collection of images, many of which have never been seen before, the book starts by looking at the Hungry Thirties concentrating on how the working classes struggled whilst the middle classes enjoyed a boom period.

There are also sections on the Home Front focussing on rationing, the black market and entertainment; the Blitz including stunning photography of the Christmas bombings of 1940; a Hitting Back section looking at Britain’s response to the Blitz; and a final chapter looking at the end of the war.

The book looks at the people, places and events that took place during one of the most fascinating periods in recent history and it is a must have for all lovers of nostalgia.
