Abstract:Edwardian Worthing covers the period between 1901 and 1914. These Edwardian times often proved to be exciting for both residents and holiday-makers alike in this premier seaside resort. Whenever the Lifeboat was launched, hundreds, sometimes thousands passionately flocked to witness the men of valour. Life in this class-conscious society is carefully illustrated throughout this exclusive review. More than 200 Edwardian photographs have been improved electronically to produce images which enhance the quality of the pictures within this book.
