England Observed, John Gay (1909-1999)

Got this book for Christmas, I cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone who grew up in the fifties, sixties, or seventies in Britain. You know when you look at a photograph, and it almost makes your heart break for the past? This book is full of those photographs.

I'll put it on my list even though I did not grow up in Britain. I did live in London for a semester while attending university in the mid-70s.
