A brand new expanded edition published 2018 which includes over 70 colour photographs and also a handy map of the central parts of the town. More topics of historical interest are now featured. The Abbey, Caedmon, the whalers, Captain Cook the circumnavigator, smugglers, the workhouse, Dracula, the famous 199 steps and more. History lurks in every footstep taken in Whitby, where inevitably shadows of the past encroach on the present and the future. Glimpses into those sometimes dark corners can inform or amuse, but at the least will add texture to your memories of the town. "More than a a mere taste, " said the Cleveland Clarion, "...a generous helping of Whitby's past ... For all Whitby lovers, this book is a must." "A special blend... a taster of Whitby's picturesque past.... Whitby Gazette
