Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Old Northamptonshire Northamptonshire is so rich in interest, both historically and architecturally, that it has been thought that another book, which does not encroach upon the provinces of the county history or guide-book, but which seeks to illustrate certain objects of interest and historic association, would not be out of place. In considering the subjects, I thought that many people would like to have some of my father's notes on the county. I had intended to include a few that were unpublished, but on further consideration I found they were so incomplete that instead I have reprinted some that were only accessible to a limited number in the pages of the Architectural Societies' Reports. I have endeavoured, by cutting these down, to bring them to a level of more general interest, without impairing the value of the contribution. My thanks are due to all those who have helped with illustrations, but especially to the Writers who have so kindly contributed chapters; also to Mr. J. A. Gotch, Mr. C. A. Markham, Father Gerard, S.J., Mr. Henry Ellis, and others, who have helped me with various notes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
