Excerpt from Some Particulars Relating to the History of Epsom, Compiled From the Best Authorities: Containing a Succinct and Interesting Description of the Origin of Horse Racing, and of Epsom Races, With an Account of the Mineral Waters, and the Two Celebrated Palaces of of Durdans and Nonsuch &C., &C

I hope, therefore, to have credit when I make the declaration, that a desire of contributing to the general information of those around me, by placing in a condensed, yet perspicuous point of View, some account of Epsom, hitherto attainable only through the medium of many expensive and laborious works.
