Book excerpt: The first permanent settlement on the site of the present city of Nottingham was probably a small fortified enclosure built in the seventh or eighth century by Anglo-Saxon invaders, on St Mary's hill, to the east of the area now occupied by St Mary's Church. The strategic importance of the site, commanding crossing points on both the rivers Leen and Trent, was not lost on Danish warlords in the ninth century, nor on Edward the Elder, who recaptured the town from the Danes, greatly strengthened and enlarged its defences, and built the first Trent bridge in A.D. 920. Long before 1066 Nottingham had already become the administrative centre for a county, ruled by a sheriff, and an important market centre for a wide area. William the Conqueror ordered the building of castle at Nottingham and a new 'French' borough quickly grew up under the castle walls, to the west of the existing 'English' borough, plus a large new market. The castle was a favourite of medieval kings, the town was walled, and its wealth in the fifteenth century is indicated today by the magnificent perpendicular parish church of St Mary. During the civil war the castle became a parliamentary garrison but it was demolished in the 1650s. A palace replaced the castle and from the late seventeenth century Nottingham also began to expand as a major manufacturing centre, famous for the production of hosiery and then lace, and from the late nineteenth century for bicycles, pharmaceuticals and cigarettes. But economic growth also brought gross overcrowding, terrible poverty, riots and 'Radical Nottingham'.This fully illustrated account traces the main themes of the town's history from the seventh century to 2010, and brings to life the community in times past. It will be enjoyed by all who are keen to find out more about the place in which they live.

Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire.” — Bryan Cogman, Co-Executive Producer and Writer, Game of Thrones No king. No rules. England, 1191. King Richard is half a world away, fighting for God and his own ambition. Back home, his country languishes, bankrupt and on the verge of anarchy. People with power are running unchecked. People without are growing angry. And in Nottingham, one of the largest shires in England, the sheriff seems intent on doing nothing about it. As the leaves turn gold in the Sherwood Forest, the lives of six people—Arable, a servant girl with a secret, Robin and William, soldiers running from their pasts, Marion, a noblewoman working for change, Guy of Gisbourne, Nottingham’s beleaguered guard captain, and Elena Gamwell, a brash, ambitious thief—become intertwined. And a strange story begins to spread . . . At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Nottinghamshire Though the popular Midland Shire, whose county town has a world-wide fame for its textile fabrics, is perhaps better known to-day in the busy world of commerce than in any other sphere, it must not be Supposed that it is deficient in the elements of literary interest or historic dignity. On the contrary, its life-story is one of the most absorbing that can possibly be presented. Since the Norman Conqueror set foot upon Nottingham shire soil, leaving here in undisturbed possession a larger number of King's Thegns than had been permitted to remain in most localities, the county has been the home of powerful people, and the scene of many memorable and stirring events which have had an important in uence on the country's welfare.

Book excerpt: In 1897 Nottingham was granted city status by Queen Victoria. The once small, fortified burh had finally come of age. In his latest book the author provides a unique insight into the extent of change over the past century. In the 19th century the town had become the centre of the lace industry and home to big companies such as Boots, Players and Raleigh; but in the 20th century the new city saw huge social, economic and technological changes. Chris Weir draws on many years of research to explain the impact of rapid changes on the city and its people.
