Review by G. D. J. [G. D. Johnston] in Sussex Notes and Queries, November 1958:This is a very interesting account of politics at Rye after the Reform Act 1832, and includes reproduction of several lampoons and broadsheets issued to influence electors until the later Reform Act of 1867 abolished Rye as a small constituency and merged it in the County Division.
