*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Indigo
Derby's history dates back over 2,000 years to when the Celtic Brigantine tribe inhabited the area on the banks of the River Derwent. Over the centuries, Derby grew as an important administrative and trading center. Its strategic position on the banks of the River Derwent was ideal for the early experimentation of water power and industrialization. The building of England’s first Silk Mill on the banks of the River Derwent at Derby in 1717 was a breakthrough. Its success led the way for the Industrial Revolution, creating a model followed by others throughout the world. The town was the power center of the 19th-century railway boom, and in 1904 the first car was produced at the newly formed Derby works of Rolls-Royce. The face of Derby has changed considerably. It’s still a major commercial center at the forefront of technical research and industrial development, but it’s also a vibrant new city with a varied and exciting history. Well-known local author Maxwell Craven takes the reader on a fascinating A–Z tour of the city’s history, exploring its lesser-known nooks and crannies, and along the way relating many a tale of the most interesting people and places. Fully illustrated with photographs from the past and present, the A–Z of Derby will appeal to residents and visitors alike.
