Rustington, a village on the Sussex plain between the South Downs and the sea, has a long history, which has been dramatically transformed over the past century. This book recounts its story, from its earliest inhabitants, and in a wealth of historic photographs – chosen almost entirely from the author’s own collection – it brings its past to life and documents the process of change in vivid, visual images, each carefully captioned. Everyone with an interest in Rustington’s past and the making of the present community will enjoy this very readable and attractive book.
