Please seach your bookcases for a copy of the booklet “Valley of the Ems” 1863 by C J Longcroft of Havant.
Part of the booklet has been published more recently, but it is just a part of a printer’s draft with many hand amendments. Even the eminent Rev. Dr. Mee did not own a copy – on page 12 of “Bourne in the Past” he thanks Mr John Cuttle for sight of his copy.
