"A History of West Bromwich" covers the area's history from the times of the Domesday Survey, The Barony of Dudley, The Lords of the Manor, The Founding of Sandwell Priory, Local Families, The Reformation, The River Tame, The Oak House, Non-conformity, School and Educational Progress, The Poor Laws, The District Hospital, Municipal Progress, Customs, Sports and Pastimes.

The book has been out of print for over 100 years, and its republication is long overdue. Incorporated in the text is a short biography of Frederick Hackwood and a list of the other books he wrote.

The book fills a gap in the needs of local historians and residents of West Bromwich who have an interest in their town and its history.
