THE LITTLE BOOK OF SUSSEX
THE LITTLE BOOK OF SUSSEX
David Arscott
The Little Book of Sussex is a funny, fast-paced, factpacked
compendium of the sort of frivolous, fantastic or
simply strange information which no-one will want to be
without.
Here we find out about the most unusual crimes and
punishments, eccentric inhabitants, famous sons and
daughters and literally hundreds of wacky facts (plus some
authentically bizarre bits of historic trivia). David Arscott’s
new book gathers together a myriad of data on Sussex.
There are lots of factual chapters but also plenty of
frivolous details which will amuse and surprise.
With chapters on folklore, history, geography, celebrity
Sussexians and much more, this is an ideal book for all those
who know and love this quintessentially English county.
Will appeal to those interested in the unknown side of
Sussex’s history
