Quirky Liverpool celebrates the more unusual and often stranger stories from across the history of the city and its port. Whilst these are all authentic and historically accurate, they are also entertaining and, in many cases, surprising.
A companion volume to Quirky Wirral, this is a varied selection of some of the lesser-known incidents, people, and places from Liverpool's history. These include the hidden community of Little Bongs; the Dockers Umbrella; the Mischievous Parrot; Run Over by a Rocket; the Founding of Everton Football Club; Grab a Granny at The Grafton; Hengler's Circus and the 'Hippy'; the Floating Bath; the 'Mystery' Park; the Bird Man of Speke; the Squire of Knotty Ash; the Cafe on Top of a Chimney; the Naked Blue Warriors; Secrets of the Beatles' Statues and much more.
Like the Wirral stories these are all well researched and extensively illustrated throughout. So settle back, and learn more about the Quirky history of Liverpool City and its port.
