Back of book info:
Devices that shot down flying bombs, instant beverage cartons, dancing in the Queen Mother's living room, Friday afternoon lingerie sales and toy ducks. Very little to do with loudspeakers but all part of the rich and varied history of Celestion, Britain's oldest and longest-surviving loudspeaker company.
A Century of Sound: The Story of Celestion is a detailed and engrossing history that tells how Celestion grew from a company building radiograms in a tiny factory in South-West London to become the internationally renowned loudspeaker brand it is today.
20-year Celestion veteran John Paice and seasoned audio journalist Jerry Gilbert have painstakingly assembled detailed information mined from Celestion's own extensive archives together with stories gathered from contemporary newspaper and trade journal articles, as well as insider knowledge collected from interviews with former and current employees, customers and partners.
The resulting treasure trove of information is a fascinating insight into the life of this stalwart of the British audio industry.
