A new book which tells the remarkable history of Booths has been launched in stores this autumn.
The Story of Booths (1847-2008) delves into the hidden archives of one of the region’s oldest and best loved retailers to chart the rise of this family-owned company.
Written by Frank Bamford, the book provides a real insight into 19th century Lancashire and reveals the dynamics of the Booths’ family. It includes many rare photographs and personal correspondence between family members.
The Story of Booths is available in the majority of Booths stores and is priced at £4.99.
