Publisher's Synopsis

The legendary Lewis's store in Liverpool is a landmark that retains the affections of the city. Once a famed emporium of glamour and spectacle which drew crowds from miles around and became the subject of urban myths, the store was part of a retail phenomenon that changed the way we shop and the architectural landscape of our cities: a world in miniature, where shoppers could buy everything under one roof and the staff included up to four generations of families. This book contains remarkable photographs taken on the 'lost' fifth floor of Lewis's by photographer Stephen King. They capture the remarkable history and former glory.
