Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

[Forked Radish]

Some of those who’ve used Sussex dialect in their writing: Shakspeare, Thomas Gray, Hardy, James Wight (Herriot), and Rowling.

Read as part of wider research for my own book on Sussex dialect. A sparkling little collection of old Sussex words, traditions and anecdotes, interesting for scholars and locals alike.
