Download or read book Chorlton Cum Hardy written by Andrew Simpson and published by Phillimore. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are plenty of books exploring the history of Manchester during the nineteenth century, but the surrounding rural communities have been neglected. We know much about conditions in the new industrial city, but there have been no studies of the townships that made a major contribution to its development. Here for the first time is a detailed account of an agricultural community that was just 4 miles from the town. Much of the narrative is rooted in the people who lived here, using their words and records. It tells of daily lives, setting them in a national context, and balances the routine with the sensational - including murder, infanticide and a rebellion. Partly a narrative of rural life, and a description of a community’s relationship with a city, the book also includes guided walks around Chorlton to bring this history to life. A database of references and sources is also provided.This is the story of a group of people that history has forgotten and scholarship has ignored.

Download or read book Blitz Britain Manchester and Salford written by Graham Phythian and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2015-08-03 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1940, the Manchester and Salford Blitz saw the city and its surroundings targeted by the German Luftwaffe. The most destructive attack was launched in late December 1940; it is remembered today as 'the Christmas Blitz'. Nearly 800 people lost their lives, and thousands more were injured, in two nights of raids ending with a devastating Christmas Eve that saw hundreds of tons of high explosive and thousands of incendiaries fall. Attacks continued into 1941 and beyond, and landmarks such as the cathedral, the Free Trade Hall, the Royal Infirmary and the Royal Exchange were all to suffer. At Old Trafford, too, a bomb wrecked the pitch and demolished the stands. This 75th anniversary narrative, based on first-hand accounts and extensive research, tells the story of how the people of Manchester, Salford, Trafford Park and Stretford endured this dark period in their history – a tale of courage, sacrifice, loss and the unconquerable power of the human spirit. Richly illustrated with contemporary photographs and documents, some of which have never been published before, this book is a valuable addition to the history of Manchester and Salford.
