Cardiff Mysteries Remastered

4.5/5 ( ratings)

Plunge into the life of Edwardian Cardiff, the “modern Athens”, a world centre of aircraft research, the start point of an infamous geographical exploration, a thrusting hive of activity. “Cardiff Mysteries Remastered” reprises the 1980s sell-out publication “Cardiff Mysteries” which pioneered a new concept in local history writing. Each chapter starts with a postcard representing something odd or surprising to the modern eye and follows an intriguing path to solving the puzzles that lie behind them. Cardiff Mysteries Remastered expands and updates the original material and presents three new mysteries with their solutions:
• Why was an old man from Cardiff jumping from Plymouth pier in a gale in 1908?
• Where is the figurehead of HMS Thisbe now, and why was she erected in Roath Park?
• What and where was the electrotherapeutic and light cure establishment in Cardiff?

Pages: 103

Format: Kindle Edition
