Profusely illustrated, this book provides a general discussion of the historical development of the town and its various communities, and then goes on to discuss the unique structural features of the inner city area of Bulawayo. Street by street the buildings and monuments, past and present, are discussed, together with dates, architects, developers and owners and tenants where these are known.
