Second hand book

On Friday I acquired a book second hand.
It was one of a series on Victorian Nottingham published in the early 70s.
The book in question(vol 5 of 20) covers the Victoria station & it's approaches.
There are many interesting photographs including ones of the slum area that was demolished before the station could be built.
650,000 cubic yards of "earth/sandstone had to be removed from the site.
If any members see this book second hand it is worth buying.
The book only covers up to the stations opening.
