Douglas Pocock will be at Waterstones, Durham on Saturday 7th September from 1-3pm signing copies of his new book, The Story of Durham.
The Story of Durham traces the evolution of a city that medieval writers likened to Jerusalem, which Ruskin termed one of the wonders of the world, and which Pevsner, more modestly, called one of the architectural experiences of Europe. Beautifully illustrated, this popular history by a leading academic will delight residents and visitors alike.
