This softback A-Z format provides a complement to the narrative of Kingston Past. Kingston is an ancient town, the site of coronations in Saxon times, and, until its assimilation into London, the county towns of Surrey. Its modern history includes the manufacture of aircraft, boat buildings and brewing. During the last war it was a bolt-hole and love-nest for General Eisenhower. Kingston was also the home of Elinor Glyn, the empress of France and Margaret Lockwood.
