The Constables of Brighton and Reigate by Claire Constable
Presenting a detailed picture of middle-class family life in mid-Victorian England, this is the story of one of photography's pioneers, William Constable. It also details his nephew Clair James Grece who was also a pioneer, but in the field of local democracy.
Claire Constable was born in Redhill, Surrey and educated in Kingsley School. After leaving school she spent six years working her way around the world, living in Paris, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Cape Town, Sydney and London. When her travels were over, Claire became a travel writer. Her interest in the history of her family, the Constables of Surrey, was fuelled when she acquired the extensive family letters and journals that form the basis of this book and her previous one, The Constables of Horley Hill, published in 2001.
