Facsimile of the 7th edition, edited by G. Philip Marris
Hatfield Local History Society has undertaken production of this facsimile edition. The work was first published in 1912 and the 7th edition in 1950.
The book has tended to remain an untapped source for local history due to its lack of an index. We hope to have remedied this by appending an index to this facsimile edition (credit, Hazel K. Bell).
Also, the original cover was rather drab so we hope this new modern design will be more appealing (credit, Paul Savage).
