Larne and its surrounding area is one of the earliest inhabited regions in Ireland and its early history was marked by a series of conflicts including invasions by the Vikings and the Scots and the 1641 Rebellion. However, the town's fortunes improved with the arrival of the Industrial Revolution and from the mid-nineteenth century the harbour became a lynchpin of the local economy as a source of tourism and trade. This history of the town contains over 50 photographs from the early years of the twentieth century, a time when the town still basked in this economic boom. Many of Larne's expansive hotels are shown, as well as subjects such as the railway station, the steamers that plied their trade at the harbour, local streets and schools, the long-gone swimming stages at the Banks, and the nearby villages of Inver and Glenoe.

Bangor, Co. Down, was always Northern Ireland's favourite holiday destination and in this history of the town its heyday as a resort, the years from 1900 to the Second World War, are recalled in a selection of fifty-three photographs from those years. Shops, streets and buildings from years gone by are all featured and the many scenes include battleships flying the flag off the coast, the charabanc tours at the Esplanade, Market Day, kids paddling at Children's Corner, the Bandstand, the packed beach at Ballyholme Bay, the Belfast steamers arriving at the piers, the 'ladies' bathing place' at Pickie's Rock (of which men were forbidden to come within 100 yards!), a visit by King Edward VII, and Henry Wingfield playing the magnificent organ at the fondly remembered Tonic Cinema
