A celebration of 140 years
A series of snapshots rather than a straightforward history, Eastbourne College: A Celebration draws on a fascinating range of both archive and recent pictorial material, alongside many amusing, outrageous, witty, serious and moving anecdotes, reflections and personal insights from students, teachers and parents, past and present.

'I have just read the book from cover to cover. It has been a day full of memories, recognition of places and old friends, unashamed tears of nostalgia and joy, new facts, old stories, all in an atmosphere of superb writing, visuals, design, editing, collation, detail, research, and, above all, style!'
Jeremy Lovitt-Danks (W55)
