Published in 1816 this tiny book gives an accurate sketch of Chester's very early history. The Roman walls of the city, streets and lanes are all described, it's like taking a tour around the city two hundred years ago. The book covers topics such as local Churches and benefactors, local government, the jail, library, monasteries, charitable institutions and schools, the trades and guilds and the plays they put on for the education of the town.

The chronology chapter is a date line of interesting events, dating as far back as 73 AD. An example, the entry for 1739 reads, "The great frost of 13 weeks: carts regularly crossed the river and a sheep was roasted on the ice"

This product is sold as a CD SECOND or SPARE.

"CD seconds" or "spares" are perfectly good data wise, but have been put aside due to:

• faulty label printing, e.g. off colour or misaligned. A few have been manually labelled or corrected
• over-produced initially, so offered as "spares" to clear

They are all offered at 60% to 90% discount (from the normal price). They will be supplied in clear CD sleeves, rather than the normal CD cases. In many cases they are the last available, i.e. they won't be available, even at full price, when sold out.
