Folkestone and Its Neighbourhood

I am just completing a reprint of the book A Descriptive and Historical Account of Folkestone and Its Neighbourhood , with Gleanings from the Municipal Records by S J Mackie.

I have used the 1883 edition which has Gleanings from the Municipal Records added.

I have published the first 100 pages on the web click here to read them

I haven’t had a chance to read the book yet and am not really certain how significant it is, in terms of Folkestone’s history, so any help on that would be appreciated, as I should really write some sort of introduction to it.

Many thanks to Martin Easdown, author of several books that I publish, who provided the cover illustrations.
