″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 This book is a glorious tribute to that remarkable store, splendidly illustrated with a wealth of previously unpublished material from the Harrod’s archives.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.

Prompt attention and quick refund
Awesome service. Purchased item at the end of 2023 and Asurion quickly, after return, refunded purchase price to my Amazon account. No hassle coverage. Have purchased Asurion on many purchases in the past and will in the future. Worth every penny. Saved a bunch in matters of money, quality, time and convenience.

Asurion does not honor their protection plans
Purchased a 3 year protection plan for my gaming monitor. The monitor broke after 2 years due to accidentally being dropped, which was covered under the plan. Asurion denied my claim saying they do not cover this issue. Thankfully Amazon customer service was able to help me return the monitor but this should have been handled through asurion not Amazon. If you buy a protection plan just know that asurion may not honor it if you need to use it. I have no confidence in asurion after my experience but am grateful for Amazon taking over the issue and fully resolving it for me.

Asurion stands behind their policy
I am very proud to know that Asurion stands behind their policy; if an item doesn't function, it should. The process was user-friendly and quick. Thank you, Asurion.

Asurion gets 5 stars
Asurion tried to repair our printer. And when it was beyond repair they within 24 hours remitted an Amazon gift card enabling us to purchase a new printer we received in 2 days. I highly recommend Asurion.
