Less than 150 years ago ‘Aldershott’ was a small, sleepy, rural village but the decision in 1853-4 to establish a permanent military camp on the heathland north of the village transformed it. The rustic place became a genteel location with theatres, churches, and leafy residential areas. " This is an excellent read ... The book is complemented by a range of pictures which highlight items words cannot express." Aldershot News
