John Douch "Smuggling : The Wicked Trade" (Crabwell Publications)

This is quite a short hardback book on the history of smuggling around the Romney Marsh area of Kent. It is a very good entertaining read with plenty of old photographs and line drawings which enhances the text. The author; style is anecdotal and yet very factual. Local history books can tend to very dry and unexciting.
It was a pleasure to read.
