The city of Liverpool remains outside the narrative frameworks of modern British history, at the nexus of competing cultural, economic, and political forces. Merseypride explores just how this sense of otherness shapes Liverpudlian identity, a “Merseypride” that changes with the city’s fortunes. Leading academic John Belchem’s second edition of this acclaimed book paints a fascinating picture of a city currently experiencing an extraordinary renaissance.
“Belchem is entitled to take pride in this piece of Mersey History.”—History
