Book excerpt: When Mary Cole, a butcher's daughter, caught the eye of Lord Berkeley, it was as flint to tinder. A forsworn bachelor, he was taken aback that she refused to be his mistress.Within weeks he'd brought her family to bankruptcy. When, still, she eluded him, he plotted to abduct her. Aided by his corrupt chaplain, Hupsman, the Earl duped his 'shepherdess' with fake nuptials.Tumbling to the truth, Mary became passionately committed to gaining her eldest son's birthright. With an astonishing grasp of pastoral economy, she repaired the Berkeley fortunes while a succession of children compounded her plight.The scandalous activities of Mary's estranged sisters had to be curtailed at the highest level before a legal knot was eventually tied.Upon Hupsman's death, the Earl and Countess conspired to 'find' the registry of the 'first marriage'. The upshot was a sensational trial in the House of Lords whose repercussions were to shake the foundations of the Berkeley dynasty for ever and imperil Mary's life.

In ÔHenry the NinthÕ we learn of the poverty of his childhood; the struggle to supplement his _d per week pocket money; the rat-catching and the pig-keeping; his annual trips on the trawlers; the yearning for independence from his domineering father; the family war over his grandfatherÕs will; his struggles at school; and his eventual and reluctant choice of profession, among many other incidents, happy and bitter.

Book excerpt: Dan Matlock is out of jail. He’s got a choice. Stay or leave. Go back to where it all went wrong, or just get out of the county. Disappear. Start again as someone else. But it’s not as simple as that. There’s the matter of the man he killed. It wasn’t murder, but even so. You tell that to the family. Especially when that family is the Mintons, who own half of what’s profitable and two-thirds of what’s crooked between the Wolds and the coast. Who could have got to Matlock as easy as you like in prison, but who haven’t touched him. Not yet. Like Matlock found out in prison, there’s no getting away from yourself. So what’s the point in not facing up to other people? It’s time to go home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the lounge of the Lincolnshire Aviator pub, situated deep in the heart of the Lincolnshire Wolds in England, just over a mile and a half down the road from the old air base, some locals were in deep conversation about the expected arrival from London of an American couple. The couple were expected to arrive that very evening, and due to an unfortunate overheard remark by the landlord of the pub, Jack Hastings, to his wife, Jean, gossiping and speculation were now rife in the lounge and public bars about the reason for the Americans visit. Jack had been talking casually about the reasons for the couples visit to Jean, saying the couple was more than just a little bit interested in the old air base down the road and that a relative of theirs flew from the base with The Pathfinders during the Second World War. That chat between Jack and Jean Hastings, overheard by one of the locals, led to gossip amongst the regulars and the speculation that the Americans were CIA agents after some dark secret. In fact, the truth was far more terrifying than the speculation in the pub. A few days later four other visitors arrived at the pub. They were the newly formed Paranormal Investigation Project, and under their investigation the horrifying truth began to emerge.

Download or read book Village England written by Trevor Wild and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2004-02-26 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The romantic imagery of village England and the prominence that this commands in English cultural identity is well known. Yet just how accurate is this notion of the rural idyll in which the organic nature of village life was gradually undermined, and destroyed, by social and economic factors? Trevor Wild's text explores the evolution of "village England" from the earliest times to the present. Drawing upon both contemporary accounts and scholarship, he provides an engaging and revealing account of the major transformations affecting the English village. Of particular interest is the book's coverage of the more recent past, with the whittling away of the great estates, the appearance of such institutions as the village hall, and the development of alternative systems of power such as the councils.
