Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Short History and Description of the Town of Alton in the County of Southampton
The present work is largely the outcome of an attempt to write a Short history and description of Alton for the Mechanics Institution, but I soon found that the materials began to accumulate, and proved so numerous, that I ventured to bring them together in book form.
