At the turn of the twentieth century, Kent was predominantly an agricultural county. The attractive villages, small market towns, coastal resorts and two cities - Rochester and Canterbury - were set in a county of contrasts, from the Weald to the coastal marshes, from the North Downs to the industrial development at Chatham and Sheerness. Over one hundred and fifty high-quality sepia photographs are complemented by well-chosen extracts from poetry and prose, fact and fiction. Everyone who knows Kent will be fascinated by this beautiful and evocative tapestry of a way of life which is now long gone.
