Bath – City on Show provides a unique and fascinating blend of historical images and contemporary photography, contrasting a World Heritage city as depicted over several hundred years with how it is seen through the lens today. Talented local photographers have worked in all seasons developing a stunning portfolio of new and original views of Bath’s most notable locations. These are presented with a pick of classic images of the city from the extensive archive of Bath in Time.

From the Roman Baths of 2,000 years ago to the twenty-first century Thermae Bath Spa, via Georgian splendour and architectural grandeur, Bath has evolved to meet the changing needs and tastes of its residents and visitors. This book is a compelling and powerful reminder of past times with a fresh and revealing look at life today.
The launch of Bath: City On Show took place on Tuesday 23^rd March 2010 at The Pump Room, Bath. The evening was officially launched with speeches from Trevor Osborne of The Osborne Group, sponsors of the online archive of historical images website http://www.bathintime.co.uk/, followed by The Chairman of Bath & North East Somerset Council and then Dan Brown one of the contributing photographers. All those involved in providing the modern photographs of Bath for the book were there to enjoy the evening and sign copies of the book. As well as Dan, they included Andy Clist, Mark Gibson, Jess Loughborough, Richard Schofield and Christina West. Dr Cathryn Spence, author of the text that surrounds the photographs was also there to praise the efforts of these local talents.
