For those wishing to know: this is the second edition of George's book on 
his home town, published 1822, when the small Lincolnshire town had the 
largest horse fair in Europe.  Horncastle has a number of interesting 
small villages near it and George has a second on each.  He's mainly 
interested in the antiquarian history, and doesn't say much about the town 
in his day.

All the best,
David
