A well-illustrated short history by the Curator of Worthing Museum – see the description (below) from the dustwrapper flap. 

The town was as notorious as Brixton or Toxteth in the 1880s when the local branch of the Salvation Army protested about the observance of Bonfire Night – this led to the local youth attacking the Salvation Army barracks (see picture!).

Still in print, but only in a paperback edition, at £14.99.
