Uncovering the Past - Emsworth, Oysters and Men

A new book written by local historian and Museum Administrator Linda Newell telling the story of how oysters made Emsworth's fortune, and how the decline of the industry could have been the end for Emsworth.

The book is priced at £8.00 with proceeds being divided between
Emsworth Museum and the fund to maintain Terror.

It is on sale at Bookends, the bookshop opposite the Crown in the High Street.  It is also available directly from Linda on 01243 371608 or envr@btinternet.com.  You can also drop your details through the letterbox of the Museum in
North Street, and someone will contact you.

It is a deliberate policy that the book is only available in Emsworth.  The story is a uniquely Emsworth story, and it is logical that it can only be obtained in Emsworth.

A book to be enjoyed - it is a good read with interesting photographs and original works by Angela Loader and Marion Forster.
