From the late eighteenth century to the early twentieth century, Liverpool was frequently referred to as the "second city of the empire."xA0; Yet, the role of Liverpool within the British imperial system and the impact on the city of its colonial connections remain underplayed in recent writing on both Liverpool and the empire.xA0; However, "inconvenient" this may prove, this specially-commissioned collection of essays demonstrates that the imperial dimension deserves more prevalence in both academic and popular representations of Liverpoolx2019;s past.xA0; Indeed, if Liverpool does represent the "World in One City"--the slogan for Liverpoolx2019;s status as European Capital of Culture in 2008--it could be argued that this is largely down to Merseysidex2019;s long-term interactions with the colonial world, and the legacies of that imperial history.xA0; xA0;In the context of Capital of Culture year and growing interest in the relationship between British provincial cities and the British empire, this book will find a wide audience among academics, students and history enthusiasts generally.
