Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bristol and Its Famous Associations In connection with a city whose foundation dates before the Conquest, there must of necessity be many and famous personal associations which have gathered round its centuries of growth and progress. Impelled by a love of his native city, it has been the task - a fascinating one - of the writer to gather together, from every available source, biographical material, which he has organised under definite headings, and which he trusts will have a real and living interest for his fellow-citizens, if not for that wider audience, the general public. If those of his critics who scan the following pages will be good enough to bear in mind the enormous field these researches cover, they will perhaps pardon any omissions in these biographical cameos, many of which are omitted by intention. Kings and queens and others who have had merely an accidental or purely historical association have been ignored; the ordinary histories will supply their omission. By consulting, too, the best authorities, the writer has endeavoured to be accurate as well as interesting. In conclusion, the author desires most gratefully to acknowledge his indebtedness to that biographical treasury, The Dictionary of National Biography; the encyclopaedic Annals of Bristol's Froissart, John Latimer; the incitement, as well as material, derived from the works of the late John Taylor; and lastly to the generous and unfailing encouragement - without which this work would never have been written - of the proprietors of The Western Daily Press, Messrs. Walter and W. Nichol Reid. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bristol and Its Environs: Historical Descriptive and Scientific; Published Under the Sanction of the Local Executive Committee of the British Association; With Illustrations and Maps HE immediate reason for the existence of the present book is the visit of the British Asso ciation to Bristol, though there is no doubt that its usefulness will much outlast the week of that event. There has always been the want of a sufficient account of the social economy and natural history of the district, which want, it is thought, has been here met in a manner that will be of permanent service.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bristol Memoranda In 1210 John caused the entire Jewish community throughout the kingdom to be arrested and collected at Bristol, where on All Saints' D (1st Nov) it was rated for talliage at 66,000 marks. In 1275 Edward I. caused the Jews of Gloucester to go to Bristol to dwell and abide there thereafter. In 1282 Aaron of Ireland, Jew, came to the shop of Robert of Arras, goldsmith, and offered him a plate of silver for sale before the eyes of many Xians who were present in the same place; in whose presence the said Robert received the sd plate from the said Jew, and when he had weighed it, charged the said Jew, that the said plate was fused from coin-chippings, and when the sd Jew heard this, he snatched the said plate from the hands of the said Robert, and ran off with it to the bridge over the water which is called Avon, and threw the said plate into the water, being followed by many Christians, who saw what he did; and by reason of the concourse and the general clamour the case came to the Constable's notice, and for that cause he arrested the Jew and detained him in prison, ... Ultimately he made fine with our Lord the King for release of suit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Annals of Bristol in the Nineteenth Century (Concluded), 1887-1900 HE following pages, completing the Annals of Bristol in the Nineteenth Century, have been written at the urgent request of numerous purchasers of the volume issued in 1887 and the compiler has once more to appeal for that kindly con sideration which has been already so largely extended to him. The years whose story is here narrated have been more full of incidents interesting in themselves, and more big with promise as regards the future of Bristol and its citizens, than any previous period of similar length. Much compression has been found necessary in dealing with the principal events, but it is hoped that no important fact has been omitted, and that the narrative will be found both impartial and trust worthy. Many persons being apparently desirous to bind this supplement with the published Annals, the sheets are issued in a form convenient for that purpose.

They are the constant reminder of the bigger, brighter and better ways of doing things, a higher type of country life, the application of scientific principles in agriculture; a more intimate realization of the rela tion of the individual to the community and of the community to the State and Nation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bristol In the series to which this little book belongs, Bristol represents the class of ancient English trading-towns; and accordingly, while, as far as space would permit, an attempt has been made to give some notice of all matters that have had a marked effect on the history of the town and city, that best illustrate the life of its inhabitants at different periods, and above all that connect it with the general affairs of the kingdom, special stress has been laid on the story of its trade and industry. In order to do this it has been needful to treat some points of interest more slightly than they may seem to deserve. Yet it is hoped that the reader will, on the whole, gain a correct idea of the character of the city's history, and of the place that it has filled in the life of the nation. As the plan of this series does not admit of references except where absolutely necessary, it is perhaps well to say here that no pains have been spared in the matter of consulting original authorities.

This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Annals of Bristol in the Nineteenth Century The government of the city was conducted on the same narrow-minded principles. Many men of capital, paying large rentals, employing many workmen, and being in every sense entitled to rank as leading citizens, were not freemen according to corporate technology they had consequently no votes at parliamentary elections, and their influence in local government could not have been less if they had been Hotten tots. Having wrested their birthright from the inhabitants, the Corporation, self-elected, and repudiating all control, spent a large proportion of the city revenues in the maintenance of ostentatious state, and in luxurious entertainments to the select circle which found favour in its sight. On the other hand, the duties of civic government were for the most part either evaded or loftily ignored. The paving, lighting, and watching of the city were miserably imperfect. The foot ways, where they existed, were so narrow that, even a quarter of a century later, the newspapers occasionally congratulated their readers when a week passed away without an accident to pedestrians. These casualties were largely due to what a writer in the Monthly Magazine for May, 17 99, termed the barbarous custom of using sledges in the public streets for the conveyance of goods, which appears to have been almost universal. The drivers in descending a slope dragged their sledges against the edge of the pavement; and, as the packages overhung the vehicles, the peril of foot-passengers may be imagined.
