    Eanes Mackenzie was a noted English topographer. He was fundamental in founding the Mechanics' Institution in Newcastle, and also produced a similar topographical and historical study on Durham.

    A detailed account of the city's religious, civic, educational and cultural buildings. Featuring both contemporary and historical accounts of the aspects discussed.

    Condition
