This companion volume to Sussex Coast Through Time is unique in being
the first 'then and now' book to portray the numerous and diverse
communities of East and West Sussex through rich sepia and stunning
colour images. Most of the early pictures have never previously been
published and include a number of rarities that can only now be widely
enjoyed. Far from simply depicting street scenes, the focus occasionally
shifts, with suitable background, to an event, a group of buildings or
perhaps even simply a shop or house to illustrate local change - for
better or worse - down the years. Sussex Through Time is an important
addition to the literature on Sussex and forms a valuable and
long-awaited comparative record of most of the settlements lying within
this extensive county.
