- The first collection covers the northern part of England, including Newcastle-upon-Tyne, York, Leeds, Bradford, Sheffield, Manchester, Liverpool, and Southport.

- Edited by local historians and scientists, the handbooks provided objective data on each city or town, together with many maps: ideal contemporary source materials for those researching Victorian and Edwardian England.
