Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Tales of the Kent people and events who have shaped the course of English history. Bygone Kent is a collection of twenty-two essays about the people and events that have largely been neglected by historians but are part of Kent's rich tapestry featuring the eccentric, bizarre and outrageous people who have lived and passed through the garden of England. This book concentrates on the strange tales surrounding these extraordinary people and events. Who would have thought that the cradle of British aviation was the on the unfashionable Isle of Sheppey; or that the greatest technological change in printing happened in the small town of Westerham in 1965; that the first and only recognised American Princess, Pocahontas, was buried in Gravesend in 1617; and that perhaps the greatest invention ever, the transmission of electricity, took place at Otterden, Charing; or that the composer of the first English sonnet was not Shakespeare but Sir Thomas Wyatt of Allington Castle, Maidstone, soldier, courtier, poet and Anne Boleyn's lover. Read on and discover Kent's best-kept secrets. AUTHOR: Malcolm Horton is an author, printer and publisher who lives at the foot of the North Downs. He has written 20 historical essays for Bygone Kent, This England and Kent Life magazine and is still a regular contributor to Bygone Kent. His publishing business commissioned artists, who were members of the Royal Academy and Royal Watercolours Society, to produce definitive watercolours of the colleges of Oxford and Cambridge University and leading independent schools, from which they made limited edition prints and seven coffee table books, which had an accompanying text outlining the history of the colleges/schools. He was a borough councillor in Bexley for four years, and now focusses his research and writing on his native Kent. 90 b/w illustrations A collection of twenty-two essays about the people and events that have largely been neglected by historians but are part of Kents rich tapestry featuring the eccentric, bizarre and outrageous people who have lived and passed through the garden of England.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
