At the edge of the Wash, a once-thriving medieval English port town comes vividly back into view. In The History Of Lynn, Civil, Ecclesiastical, Political, Commercial, Biographical, Municipal, And Military (Volume I), William Richards traces the fortunes of King's Lynn, Norfolk, England from its earliest recorded beginnings to his own day, weaving together town and municipal history with the wider story of English life. Here, Lynn speaks at last. Richards assembles a classic English local history book that interlaces civil and ecclesiastical narrative, political and commercial history, municipal development and military episodes with biographical sketches of residents who gave the town its character, making this both an antiquarian historical reference and an engaging portrait of civic life. As a cornerstone of King's Lynn civic history and a key early account of urban life on the east coast, History of Lynn Volume 1 has long been valued by scholars, local readers and collectors. Its careful chronicle of families, offices, institutions and trade makes it a trove for genealogy and family research, and an essential volume in any British town histories collection, especially for those interested in the growth of ports and boroughs. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
