Content

The guide manages to pack a great deal of content among its 32 pages, there are also 56 images and together a comprehensive and concise guide to the history of radio is formed.

The title suggests this is a guide to just Old Radios but the text covers the history and development of radio and broadcasting too.

In my opinion an excellent concise and good vale guide to the history of British broadcast radio. Particularly suited to the newcomer or those with few existing books.
