Book Description: 
In this engaging book, Wendy Hughes takes you on a grand tour of the curious and bizarre, the strange and the unusual from Sussex's past. Read about the Alfriston Star - the hostelry for medieval package tours with its unusual ship's figurehead, the Russian memorial to Finnish soldiers, Crazy Jack who couldn't stop building and who is buried in a pyramid, the inventor of vapour baths and the lady who fooled the army. Along the way you will meet scandalous residents, inventors, and smugglers galore. The A-Z of Curious Sussex is guaranteed to fascinate both resident and visitor alike.
