Part of the Secret series

Paperback / softback

Description

Dr Philip MacDougall, local historian, takes you on a journey through the City of Chichester revealing much of its lesser-known history.

Here you will find the story behind the city's nineteenth-century banking crisis, the activities of a London mob of criminals who targeted the Goodwood races, a fascinating collection of letters written during the First World War and even how local politicians once bribed potential voters with lashings of beer. Blending the serious and the not so serious and drawing heavily on primary sources, including newspapers and original documents, Secret Chichester gives a fascinating look at this city's past with images from long ago and today.
