<p><em>'He gave his name to the longest, and one of the most important, British administrations of the nineteenth century.

<p>The city of Liverpool is famous throughout the world. This once-small fishing village was transformed into a mighty commercial powerhouse, seen by many as the second city of the British Empire.

Today, Liverpool has the fastest-growing economy in Britain and has been a European Capital of Culture and is a UNESCO World Heritage City. Well-known local author Ken Pye 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 Liverpool will appeal to residents and visitors alike.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,156円

The club has arguably the most passionate fans in the world and their anthem "You'll Never Walk Alone" has helped carry the team through the good times and the bad particularly following the 1989 Hillsborough disaster when 96 supporters were crushed to death. Founded in 1892, the club has played at Anfield in all that time, and enjoyed its most successful period in the 1970s and 1980s when Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley led the club to eleven league titles and seven European trophies. This fully-illustrated book looks back at all the greatest moments that have shaped the history of the Merseyside club and pays tribute to the great players from the past such as Kevin Keegan, Ian Rush, Kenny Dalglish and Steven Gerrard to the modern superstars including Virgil Van Dijk, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Mo Salah who are on their way to becoming legends under the charismatic managership of Jurgen Klopp.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 545円

Liverpool Kids of WWII, Part 2 Beyond the Blitz【電子書籍】[ Bernard Fredericks ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The boy was growing into youth ? not yet a teenager ? but was bright enough to know his country was in a war that it mustn’t lose, that his brother and uncles were also part of this deadly struggle… Melodious harmonies and helmets were heard and seen at the impromptu Christmas party his mum and dad had arranged.

He could see a US army belt with what looked like a brown wood baseball bat attached, as well as a set of handcuffs.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 727円
