Book Synopsis A Scottish Graveyard Miscellany by : Hamish M. Brown
Download or read book A Scottish Graveyard Miscellany written by Hamish M. Brown and published by Birlinn Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Scottish Graveyard Miscellany, Hamish Brown explores in words and extraordinary pictures the folk art of Scottish graveyards from the eighteenth century (when gravestones began to be widely used) to the present day. Each old kirkyard is a riotous celebration of folk art: there are skulls and skeletons, ships and lighthouses, angels galore, carved portraits of our forebears and even a gravestone decorated with a picture of Bart Simpson and his skateboard! More than mere memorials, the graves are a collection of pages in stone taken from the history of Scottish everyday life. Scotland's kirkyards are not gloomy places to be shunned, but places to find vivid stories from the lives of people, without distinction of class or creed. There is much humor in this book, and the photographs throughout taken by the author illustrate better than words why we should look after the unique treasuries in our midst.
Book Synopsis Women in the Great War by : Stephen Wynn
Download or read book Women in the Great War written by Stephen Wynn and published by Grub Street Publishers. This book was released on 2017-05-31 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “superlative social history” of British women’s efforts in WWI and how they led to the women’s suffrage movement—includes photos (Books Monthly). In this fascinating history, husband and wife coauthors Stephen and Tanya Wynn chronicle the effects of the Great War on the lives of women, and how those experiences shaped the women’s suffrage movement. Before the war, women were employed as domestic servants, clerical workers, shop assistants, teachers, or barmaids. But after the outbreak of World War I, women began working in munitions factories, as nurses in military hospitals, bus drivers, mechanics, and taxi drivers. They began filling jobs and social roles that had previously been reserved only for men. When the war finally came to a close, there was no going back for these determined women. Many were experiencing financial freedom for the first time and were reluctant to give up their independence. At the same time, tens of thousands of women were widowed with young children and already navigating new lives as heads of household. Chronicling the collective and individual stories of British women during the war, Women in the GreatWar demonstrates the profound and lasting impact the female war effort had on women’s social history.
