Description

Secret Brighton offers a unique insight into the intriguing and eccentric city of Brighton through the lesser-known aspects of its history. This book highlights the history ‘below the surface’ of Brighton, revealing hidden aspects that even most Brightonians don’t know. Discover the story behind the Prince Regent’s numerous trips to the site of what is a council estate today, the little-known plans for Brighton’s hotels and piers in the First World War and uncover literary secrets, including which multimillion-selling Brightonian author was once Orson Welles’ house cleaner. Brighton-born author Kevin Newman takes the reader on a fascinating journey through Brighton’s murky past.

Author Biography:

Kevin Newman is an author of history textbooks who also advises theatre and TV production companies on their historical plays and programmes. As well as being a GCSE History examiner, he gives a number of historical talks and presentations throughout the South of England every year and still manages to squeeze in some history teaching when not running his organisation, All-Inclusive History. A full time history teacher for 15 years, Kevin always tried to bring the past alive through exploring its buildings, and still takes educational and corporate groups, such as Sotheby’s School of Art on architectural tours.
