Synopsis "The Best of British: The Stories Behind Britain's Iconic Brands (in English)"
Featuring hundreds of photographs, this lavishly illustrated guide to some of the most distinguished British brands takes a fascinating, behind-the-scenes look at their enduring success. Classic style and British manufacturing are both experiencing a boom in demand―driven by a desire among consumers for authentic, quality products. Britain is uniquely placed to benefit from this resurgence, given the number of heritage companiesstill producing at the top of their game. From the world-famousBarbour in South Shields in the north of England to John Lobbin London, many of these fine businesses remain in familyownership, protective of their traditions and justifiably proud oftheir products. Many are the bearers of warrants from the BritishRoyal family, and all are over 100 years old. Horst Friedrichsexplores the historic places where these British brands havebecome some of the strongest in the world: Johnston’s of Elginin the north of Scotland, Corgi socks in southern Wales, andJohn Smedley in Derbyshire. By highlighting the stories ofthese legendary brands―both new and old, grand and humble―Friedrichs and Crompton show how relevant these companiesand their traditional production techniques still are. A VeryBritish Heritage is a must-read for anyone that appreciates wellcraftedproducts and timeless style.
