In Brighton the Wagners wielded such influence that their story is a major strand in the town's history. Apart from the Brighton interest, the book sheds fascinating light both on the dynastic vigour of German and Huguenot immigrants and on the social patterns of English society. Melchior Wagner, whose father had moved in 1677 to Coburg from Silesia, migrated to England, was naturalised in 1709 and was appointed hatter to King George I. He was granted the crown lease of a house in Pall Mall and his descendants remained for three generations.

Brighton's reputation for Regency architecture has overshadowed its other architectural glories, chiefly its nineteenth-century churches - several of which are outstanding. They have not previously been the subject of collective study, and in this book Antony Dale, the well-known Brighton historian, gives an account of all the churches in Brighton and Hove that were built before 1880, both medieval and later. Dale is concerned with the story of how Brighton's churches came to be built and were at first administered. His account shows that the clergy who built these churches, and ministered there, are also of remarkable interest.
