″This book draws together many strands of the story of Harrods- its customers, its staff, its place in society and its role in time of war, the regular emergence of new departments, and the fascinating and always changing picture of a building evolving through this century….Here is Harrod’s past and present, but bear in mind that we are still writing the future chapters of a story which combines all the elements of drama and glamour. Don’t let anyone ever tell you business is boring- here is the romance of retailing.” (Excerpt from foreword by the Chairman of Harrods Limited Mr. Mohamed Al Fayed)
Harrods is the most famous department store in the world. Its name is synonymous with quality and first-class retailing. Representing the very best of Britain, it is in a class of its own. The story of Harrods is the story of a tiny grocery shop which rapidly grew into a national institution admired by the entire world. This book is a glorious tribute to that remarkable store, splendidly illustrated with a wealth of previously unpublished material from the Harrod’s archives. In every chapter of the book, past and present are drawn together to portray a different aspect of Harrods, reflecting the gradual evolution of a store deeply rooted in the past.
A delight to browse through and a pleasure to read, this book captures the special magic that is Harrods.
Sean Callery is a professional writer, with a background in journalism and retailing. His previous books include The First Time Father and A History of Tennis.
