Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Old Somerset The object of the present volume is to provide a conspectus of the principal historical and archaeological interests of the country of Somerset These, however, are so rich and varied that the Editor has found it beyond his power to include between its covers all the attractive topics that might be treated. Still, the work, if not actually encyclopaedic, is fairly comprehensive, and its scope is certainly wider than that of any similar publication while it is far more authoritative. The different writers have attempted to deal with their subjects in a literary, as well as scientific, spirit. Nothing has been assumed that a person of good education may not be reasonably expected to know; and, conversely, as the writers, in most instances, are either well-known authorities or particularly acquainted with their respective subjects, it may be confidently anticipated that the results of their labours will be to a "make the bounds of knowledge wider yet," even for those residents possessing an antecedent familiarity with some of the topics. All the papers, with two exceptions, have been specially written for "Memorials of Old Somerset," and, conformably with the aim of the series, in a manner adapted to the cultivated general reader.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Old Nottinghamshire The present editor has tried to choose his subjects from a field as varied as possible, and he ventures to think that papers will be found here which will be welcome both on account of the matter to be found in them and because of the novelty of the subject. Nor must it be thought for a moment that the choice of interesting subjects is by any means exhausted. Enough material could easily be found to fill a second and perhaps even a third volume. It only remains for the editor to thank all who by their contributions, helpful advice, and encouragement have made the task of compiling this small tribute to the memory of a great county a pleasure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Old Cheshire But wide as the range is, it is manifestly impossible in a volume of this size to cover the whole ground. It does not profess to be a complete history, or to give all those memories of the past which ought to be of interest to those of the present day. Perhaps no county is richer in these treasures than the county of Chester, and every corner of it has its own special ones. The city of Chester gives its title to the heir to the Crown, as the Prince of Wales is always Earl of Chester; and that fact in itself gives a dignity and importance to both city and county. Then, as will be pointed out in some of the papers which follow, as a County Palatine, Cheshire had privileges and rights of a peculiar character, and all this has made the task of selection of subjects to be treated of more difficult, and the reader will doubtless sympathise with the Editors, even though he may not altogether approve of the result of their labours, and may lament certain omissions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Old Northamptonshire Orthamptonshire 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 unpub lished, 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 con tribution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Old Essex Belongs is simple and understandable. It is to produce books which, while they do not assume to be detailed historical records of any one county, shall gather together the principal episodes of a county's history, and afford prominence to some of its outstanding characteristics and features. Thus in the present volume, dealing with a part of our land which, by reason of its geographical position, was necessarily the scene of frequent and exciting struggles for supremacy between Briton and Roman, considerable space has been devoted to the fascinating record of those far-off days. Again, the almost unique association of Essex with the Royal Forests of England, of which small fragments now remain, renders such a study of the Forest Records as Dr. Cox contributes of especial interest. And so, too, in regard to such widely different subjects as the Religious Houses of the county and the Monumental Brasses which are still contained within its churches, Essex, with few exceptions, stands at the head of all other counties. In common with other counties, Essex. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Old Buckinghamshire Buckinghamshire has many charms for the Antiquary and the Historian. Few other counties contain more historic seats, or can boast of a longer list of distinguished sons who have left their mark on the pages of our country's annals. Statesmen, poets, patriots, heroes of the sword and of the pen, have made their home amid the hills and dales of this delightful county; and many great events in the history of England have taken place upon its soil. It has been the aim of the authors of these "Memorials" to record the chief objects of interest connected with the county, although they are conscious that they have by no means exhausted the rich stores of historical treasure which Buckinghamshire affords. The Editor desires to express his gratitude to the writers who have so kindly co-operated with him in the preparation of this volume. One gentleman, the representative of one of the oldest families in Buckinghamshire, the Rev. Randolph Pigott, has been called away from earth since his brief chapters on the history of the county which he loved were written. His last composition will have a pathetic interest for his many friends. To the other authors who have contributed to this volume the Editor begs to offer his most grateful thanks, and he trusts that their labours will meet with the approbation of all who reverence antiquity and love the traditions and historical associations of Old Buckinghamshire.

This book was released on 2013-08-20 with total page 1147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: "Buried Alive + The Old Wives' Tale + The Card (3 Classics by Arnold Bennett)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. The hero of a novel Buried Alive is Mr Priam Farll, a painter of considerable ability. He is, however, extremely shy – so shy that when his valet, Henry Leek, dies suddenly, the doctor believes the dead man to be Priam Farll and the live man the valet. The artist does not try to disabuse him. After the funeral , Priam Farll marries a widow and lives a happy life until the loss of his wife’s money means he has to take up painting again. A connoisseur of art recognises his style but thinks the paintings are by an imposter. He makes a fortune by buying his works through a small dealer and selling them in America as genuine. Meanwhile Priam Farll refuses through his obstinate shyness to prove his own identity. The Old Wives Tale (1908), a novel set in part in the Potteries district of North Staffordshire, where Bennett grew up, is generally considered his single masterpiece. The Card is a short comic novel written by Arnold Bennett in 1911. It chronicles the rise of Edward Henry ("Denry") Machin from washerwoman's son to Mayor of Bursley (a fictitious town based on Burslem). This is accomplished through luck, initiative and a fair bit of chutzpah (in slang a card is a ‘character’, an ‘original’; a clever, audacious, person). Arnold Bennett (1867-1931) was an English journalist, novelist, and writer. After working as a rent collector and solicitor's clerk, Bennett won a writing contest which convinced him to become a journalist. He later turned to the writing of novels, including his most famous Clayhanger and Anna of the five towns.
