Abstract
MR. LUCAS himself aptly describes his book. He tells the reader:—“My aim has been to gather a Sussex bouquet rather than to present the facts which the more practical traveller requires,” and he has succeeded in writing a delightful, chatty account of a county in which Londoners have an especial interest. The history, architecture and folk-lore, the animal and plant life of the county, and the customs and characteristics of the people are all noticed by Mr. Lucas and skilfully woven into a pleasing narrative. The illustrations, of which there are nearly eighty, are excellent, and add greatly to the charm of the book.
Highways and Byways in Sussex.
