Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wide-ranging history of the geography and communities of Kent from the earliest times to the present day.Kent, with its long coastline and its important geopolitical position close to London and continental Europe, and on major trading routes between Britain and the wider world, has had a very significant maritime history. This book covers a wide range of topics relating to that history from the earliest times to the present day. It sets Kent's varied coastline and waters in their geological and geographical context, showing how erosion and sediment deposition have contributed to the changing nature of maritime activities and populations. It examines Kent's strategic role in the defence of the country with the development and redevelopment of coastal defences, including four naval dockyards. It goes on to consider the supporting industries which grew up around the coastline, those which supplied raw materials and agricultural products from the county's hinterland, and its wider national and international trading links. It also discusses the diverse coastal communities of Kent and how they have changed in response to the demands of defence, trade, and changing population and migration patterns.

Book Synopsis Along the Kent Coast by : Ray Hollands
Download or read book Along the Kent Coast written by Ray Hollands and published by History Press (SC). This book was released on 2003 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a unique photographic record of a journey along the Kent coastline. From the starkness of Dungeness in the south to the magisterial sweep of Dartford Bridge in the north, the descriptions of Paul Harris and the contemporary photographs of Ray Hollands capture the county's rich variety of town- and landscape, its ancient fortifications and modern harbours, its busy riverways, hidden creeks and isolated headlands. But it is above all the unusual, the hidden and the bizarre that this book reveals: the images presented here record both precise moments in time and place and yet suggest timeless, almost sculptural qualities. Whether the scene be dramatic or everyday, whether the site be well known or unfrequented, Along the Kent Coast offers a new perspective that will continuously surprise and delight both those familiar with Kent and the tourist or traveller just passing through. These are images to treasure, to look at and cherish time and time again.
Book Synopsis The Kent Coast (Classic Reprint) by : Arthur D. Lewis
Download or read book The Kent Coast (Classic Reprint) written by Arthur D. Lewis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-05 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kent Coast The author, when last he visited Kent, went all round the coast on foot, and has indicated in this volume exactly where not too comfortable shingly or marshy tracts will be found, where the road is by the sea, and where a footpath must be followed. The coast can be kept to everywhere if the tourist does not object to a little rough walking. The pedestrian, cyclist, or motorist, unless he is exceptionally romantic (or foolish, may I say?) and likes to lose himself, will probably prefer to carry a map, and the Ordnance Survey publications are the most convenient. One mile to an inch will suit the pedestrian, and two miles to an inch the cyclist or motorist - perhaps even four miles to an inch will be sufficiently detailed for the latter. The man who wishes conscientiously to explore everything should get a large scale map and also more detailed maps on the scale of one mile to an inch.

Book Synopsis All The Devils Are Here by : David Seabrook
Download or read book All The Devils Are Here written by David Seabrook and published by Granta Books. This book was released on 2014-07-03 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty years ago, in a series of mysterious, incandescent writings, David Seabrook told of the places he knew best: the declining resort towns of the Kent coast. The pieces were no advert for the local tourist board. Here, the ghosts of murderers and mad artists crawl the streets. Septuagenarian rent boys recall the good old days and Carry On stars go to seed. Clandestine fascist networks emerge. And all the time, there is Seabrook himself - desperate perhaps, and in danger. Dark, strange and immediate, this is a classic work of sui generis British literature. There are devils here, and the reader will remember them.
