Abstract:This is an edition of the surviving correspondence of the two Dukes, which is preserved among the Goodwood Archives in the West Sussex Record Office and the Newcastle Papers in the British Library. The letters, which can be read as an almost continuous narrative, centre on a number of major themes in national political history, and in particular on the War of Austrian Succession; the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion; the fall of Walpole; the rise and fall of Carteret; and the careers of the Pelham brothers. At the same time they are equally revealing about the local scene, as they depict the activities of two aristocratic magnates dominating their respective halves of the county of Sussex. Richmond's career is well illustrated, as are county politics and society; the general elections of 1734, 1741 and 1747; and the important campaign against the smuggling gangs in the 1740's.
Previously unpublished and little known, Richmond's correspondence has been characterised by Professor L. C. Curtis in his Chichester Towers as "those wonderful unguarded letters to Newcastle, into which Richmond was wont to pack his horse sense, his sizing up of men, his humour, and so much of his affection". In his Duke of Newcastle, Professor Reed Browning pointed out that "the Newcastle papers in the British Museum reveal Richmond as a racy correspondent whose unblushing epistolary manner, in our own era of easier standards need no longer be confined to the archives." The volume has an introduction chronicling the careers of the two Dukes; a chronology; and a comprehensive index.

Abstract:The history of cricket in Sussex has been traced back to the 17th century, but the 18th century was a period of enormous importance in the development of the game. It was the period when a disorganised rural pastime, played in country churchyards and rural wastelands evolved into a national game played by regular teams patronised by the aristocracy and county gentry. Sussex was one of the principal centres of this evolution. The history of cricket in particular and sport in general is every bit as valuable as economic, religious or social history, and this volume is the first comprehensive study of all available sources.
It prints in chronological order all known references to 18th century cricket in Sussex or played by Sussex teams, recorded in local and national newspapers, diaries, correspondence and accounts of the period. The principal newspapers used are the Sussex Weekly Advertiser and the Hampshire Chronicle and Portsmouth Gazette for matches played in the western half of the county, and the Kentish Chronicle, Kentish Gazette, Kentish Weekly Post and the Canterbury and Maidstone Journals for the east. London newspapers are useful sources for matches played in London, particularly in the first half of the century.
Books of scores compiled by W. Epps, Samuel Britcher, Henry Bentley and Arthur Haygarth are included. References to cricket have been extracted from the Sussex diaries of John Baker, John Burgess, William Davy, Walter Gale, Sarah Hurst, James Maidlow, Thomas Marchant, John Marsh and Thomas Turner, together with those of John Dawson and Thomas Pattenden of Kent. Manuscript sources have been transcribed from West Sussex Record Office. the Hampshire Record Office, the Kent Heritage Centre and the British Library, as well as a host of other collections.
The Introduction reproduces all known references to cricket in Sussex in the 17th century. It examines the chronological and geographical spread of the game in 18th century Sussex. It also explores such aspects of the game as the grounds on which matches were played, and the teams who played. The place of cricket in the society of the time is discussed: the patrons and sponsors, the crowds, the entertainment and hospitality, and the gambling. Other topics touched on include series of matches, rules and regulations, scores, the weather, curiosities of cricket and women's cricket.

Abstract:The Duke of Richmond broke his leg in 1732. This apparently minor incident is significant because of the prominence of the duke, the distinction of the doctors who treated him, and the wealth of information on the treatment he received, revealed in the contemporary newspapers and the duke's surviving correspondence. Before the accident the duke was one of a number of occasional and enthusiastic gentleman cricket players. After the accident he became arguably the most important patron of cricket in the first half of the 18th century.
