Excerpt from A History of Gloucestershire In accordance with the present trend of educational thought, this book aims at furnishing, in simple language, an account of the connexion with the history of Gloucestershire in their connexion with the wider history of our country. Obviously, however, the space allotted to any period or event must, in many cases, be very disproportionate to the space which would be given to the same period or event in a general history of England. As a consequence the earlier periods of history are, in this volume, generally more fully dealt with than are later times, because of the relatively greater importance of Gloucestershire during the early and middle ages. There will, I believe, be general agreement with the following words from the 'Circular of the Board of Education on the Teaching of History': 'It is far more important that pupils should leave school with their eyes trained to observe the historical remains which are to be found in almost every part of England, than that they should attempt to remember the whole of the political history, much of which they cannot understand.' In accordance with this principle, I have devoted a considerable amount of space to the most notable of the historic remains in the county, from those of prehistoric times down through the recognized great periods of architecture.

Excerpt from The Story of Gloucestershire The rapid exhaustion of an issue of two thousand copies of the First Edition of this little work is an indication that it achieves the two objects for which it was written. Those objects were (i) to give practical effect to the suggestion of the Education Committee of the County Councils' Association, that in our Elementary Schools lessons in geography should begin with the physical features of the district, and instruction in history should, so far as possible, begin with events associated with some local event or object and (2) to present the story of Gloucestershire as illustrative of the story of England: for, as Mr. F. A. Hye'i't says, in his valuable work, Gloucester in National History, if an interest in local history can be awakened, national history is often studied with greater pleasure, and to more advantage. In preparing a Second Edition I have availed myself of the opportunity to revise the form in which a few of the leading events in our county history are presented, and to correct a few errors which kindly critics have pointed out. I have also added an entirely new chapter, on The Making of Gloucestershire, in which an attempt is made to trace the stages through which the county came into being. As stated in the First Edition, the authorities consulted are far too numerous to mention, but it is only just to gratefully acknowledge my indebtedness for much information gleaned from the Transactions of the Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society.

Excerpt from Gloucestershire Biographical Notes The writer's previous work Good and Great Men of Gloucestershire - has long been out of print, and copies of it are now rare. It has, therefore, been thought that the present volume may be rendered more complete and interesting if introduced by a summary of the contents of the former one. In attempting this, little can be done beyond an enumeration of the subjects of the several parts of which it consists, and a brief indication of the chief facts which are narrated.

Excerpt from Place-Names of Gloucestershire: A Handbook Place-Names record faithfully enough to us, not only the settlements formed by our forerunners belonging to ancient races (the possessors and the places possessed), in the land we live in, but they tell us not a little as to what were their actual demands upon these; what were their labours, their homely callings, where were fought their battles, where were heaped their dikes and defences, and, finally, their impressive burial-mounds. Of some few, however, such as certain river-names, it may be said that these only glimmer to us in an uncertain, often tantalizing, way, through the deep night of pre-history, like light from some of the remoter stars, the spectra of which are too faint to give any certain results. Place-names often reveal to us the personal names of the originators of hamlets, and the owners of manors, as well as the identity of the once-important tribalcentre, market, or hundred; so many of which have now dwindled to almost insignificant farms, if, indeed, they have not actually disappeared. Furthermore, by subjecting their early variant-forms to the comparative process, they not infrequently discover to us the secrets of certain sound-changes, which have been due either to dialectal influences, or, more often, to those peculiar modifications which took place in initial and other groups of consonants in order to suit Norman articulation. All this, then, that they give us, is historical material. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
