Abstract

A lasting and deserving testament to a truly great city is recognised in the latest book by Carl Chinn. This is a unique and colourful book. It is the first time that the history of country's premier regional city has been told through its place names. Carl expertly takes his account from the time of Beorma, the Anglo-Saxon who gave his name to what we nowcall Birmingham, right up to the developments at Frankley in the 1970s. One Thousand Years of Brum is a tribute to all the neighbourhoods and people of Birmingham.
