Plug! Late shifts and work on other sites (see below) account for the slow updates on here this week. But I did just want to pop in and mention that the Pevsner Architectural Guides to Liverpool has been published and is available at all good Waterstones. Apart from the local connection, its of particular interest to me because I used to work with the author Joseph Sharples. He was always patient with me when I need help with some aspect of art history I couldn't quite follow and I learnt a lot during our short association -- so in my small way I wanted to repay the favour. The text is clear, but dense with information and with the format (a series of walks through central Liverpool) a great opportunity for me to learn more about the history of my brithplace.
