Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generation after generation has come up with new forms of punishment to inflict on those guilty (and sometimes innocent) of crimes against property and person. From the stocks and pillory, to flogging, ducking and transportation to foreign lands, this volume brings to life those turbulent times of long ago. Even after suffering the ultimate in punishments — death — the bodies of the convicted could still be punished. Stories of dissection, when the body of the deceased criminal was publicly carved up, or gibbeting, when the corpse would be coated in tar and canvass and displayed in an iron frame on a pole 30ft high, are gruesome in the extreme. Pity poor John Spencer, whose rotting remains were gibbeted for over sixty years until the cage was finally blown down in a storm. Richly illustrated, this book provides a fascinating glimpse into the dark world of punishments through the centuries and will appeal to all those wishing to discover more about Nottinghamshire’s intriguing past.

Book excerpt: Doncaster thrived during the Georgian period, and continued to grow as a railway town in the nineteenth century. As a consequence, it can boast a rich architectural history, the influence of which can still be seen and appreciated in the fabric of the Doncaster of the modern day. Geoffrey Howse’s comparisons between archive images of the Doncaster of decades past and modern photographs of the same scenes today beautifully illustrates the changing face of this historic city, as well as the changes in society, transport and fashions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In popular imagination the warfare of the Early Middle Ages is often obscure, unstructured, and unimaginative, lost between two military machines, the ‘Romans’ and the ‘Normans’, which saw the country invaded and partitioned. In point of fact, we have a considerable amount of information at our fingertips and the picture that should emerge is one of English ability in the face of sometimes overwhelming pressures on society, and a resilience that eventually drew the older kingdoms together in new external responses which united the ‘English’ in a common sense of purpose. This is the story of how the Saxon kingdoms, which had maintained their independence for generations, were compelled to unite their forces to resist the external threat of the Viking incursions. The kingdoms of East Anglia, Mercia, Northumbria, Kent, Essex, Sussex, and Wessex were gradually welded into one as Wessex grew in strength to become the dominant Saxon kingdom. From the weak Æthelred to the strong Alfred, rightly deserving the epithet ‘Great’, to the strong, but equally unfortunate, Harold, this era witnessed brutal hand-to-hand battles in congested melees, which are normally portrayed as unsophisticated but deadly brawls. In reality, the warriors of the era were experienced fighters often displaying sophisticated strategies and deploying complex tactics. Our principal source, replete with reasonably reliable reportage, are the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles, comprehensive in collation though subject to oral distortion and mythological excursions. The narrative of these does not appear to flow continuously, leaving too much to imagination but, by creating a complementary matrix of landscapes, topography and communications it is possible to provide convincing scenery into which we can fit other archaeological and philological evidence to show how the English nation was formed in the bloody slaughter of battle.

Trollope's writing is known for its keen observations of society, politics, and human relationships, often presented with subtle humor and wit. His novels, including 'The Warden', 'Barchester Towers', and 'The Last Chronicle of Barset', provide a rich tapestry of characters and settings that capture the complexities of life during the 19th century. Trollope's style is marked by his detailed character development and exploration of moral themes, making his works both entertaining and thought-provoking. His social commentary and satirical elements are prominent throughout his oeuvre. Anthony Trollope, a Victorian-era novelist and civil servant, drew inspiration from his firsthand experiences and observations of English society, politics, and bureaucracy. Trollope's career in the postal service informed his depictions of bureaucracy in his novels, adding a layer of authenticity and insight to his works. His ability to balance his literary pursuits with his professional responsibilities speaks to his dedication and talent as a writer. I highly recommend The Complete Novels of Anthony Trollope to readers interested in Victorian literature, social commentary, and engaging storytelling. Trollope's works offer a fascinating portrayal of 19th-century English society, presented through a lens of wit, wisdom, and timeless relevance.
