Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Victoria History of the County of Sussex, Vol. 1
The history of each county is complete in itself, and in each case its story is told from the earliest times, commencing with the natural features and the flora and fauna. Thereafter follow the antiquities, pre-roman, Roman and post-roman; ancient earthworks; a new translation and critical study of the Domesday Survey articles on political, ecclesiastical, social and economic history architecture, arts, industries, sport, etc. And topography. The greater part of each history is devoted to a detailed description and history Of each parish, containing an account of the land and its owners from the Conquest to the present day. These manorial histories are compiled from original documents in the national collections and from private papers. A special feature is the wealth of Illustrations afforded, for not only are buildings of interest pictured, but the coats of arms of past and present landowners are given.
