The famous Kent ‘Blue Book’ was published annually from 1878 to 1946 with breaks in publication during the two World Wars (1914-18, 1940-44). Each issue contains a review of the season prior to the year of publication. The Kent C.C.C. Yearbook was introduced in 1947 and continued for as brief time until 1950 when the title again reverted to Kent C.C.C. Annual and is currently published each year
