Förlagets beskrivning
in 1906, as the Edwardian craze for postcards gained momentum, David Sinclair opened a photographic business in Middleton-in-Teesdale, specialising in the publication of postcards depicting the locality.
For the next ten years or so Mr Sinclair photographed the local scenery and the life of the people of Teesdale and its immediate surroundings. As a result, he created a unique historical record of life in a rural North Pennine community in the years immediately before the Great War.
More than two hundred of David Sinclair's photographic postcards are reproduced in this book, providing the reader with an insight into a way of life which would soon be changed forever as the horrors of the First World War unfolded
