Hurry, Hurry, While Stocks Last

A sideways look at the economic, social and shopping history of Cumbria as seen through local advertisements 1850-1940. Hunter Davies traces the changes in Cumbrian life, in attitudes and activities, trends and fashions. He observes the social and

economic changes, and notes the unintentional humour along the way. The result is a perfect keepsake – amusing, yet informative, bedside reading for anyone with Cumbrian connections.
