"I was born in Rye, in a house in Eagle Road, at the end of which my grandfather worked for a local contractor in a carpenter's shop". So writes the author; and although he has since lived away from Susex for longer or shorter periods he still regards the county as home. That is one of his qualifications for writing this book. Another is a knowledge of his subject which is intimate, up-to-date and scholarly. A third is style which is both graceful and winning. These qualities are much needed when describing a county so full of individuality, of history, and of surviving treasues. Excellent photographs and a sketch map add to the virtues of what is certainly, among so many contenders, one of the finest books on Sussex ever written. Illustrated. 272 pp. . First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Hardback.
