This book is an authoritative account of the church and parish from Saxon times to the present day. It is illustrated with many specially commissioned photographs and plans. There is a chapter on the important place that music has held in the life of the church. Since St Martin's is now a Shared Church, the history of Methodism in Dorking is given in full. Also included are the other two other churches attached to the parish, St Barnabus, Ranmore and St Mary the Virgin, Pixham.
