The Little History of Sussex by Kevin Newman

Sussex may be a comparatively narrow county from north to south but it includes a huge wealth of history. The Little History of Sussex is much the same - it packs a whole lot of history into a relatively small book. From prehistory to the present, this historic county provides reminders of our earliest ancestors and its past as a battleground for the Vikings. Whether being the gateway for the Normans, a playground for princely playboys or a home to holidaymakers, the people of Sussex have seen it all. This means it's not surprising the county still today contains residents who, at times, very much `wunt be druv!'. The Little History of Sussex covers the county's history in a swift, engaging and lively sweep for those who like their history fresh, funny and full of intrigue.
