Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Church History in Leicestershire charts the story of religion in England from pre-Christian times to the twentieth century, viewed through events and the eyes and experiences of people in Leicestershire. Weaving together ecclesiastical, political and social strands it chronicles the tortuous tale of religion, churches and the people who worshipped there. Where did churches and chapels come from; who built them, when and why? What significance lies in their looks and names? What made people so devoted to them? Why do they still exist? The book covers sweeping religious and political movements, potentates of church and state, but centre-stage are the clergy, their parishioners, churches and chapels: how they thrived or perished, weathered plague and invasions, grappled with their consciences during the Reformation and Civil Wars, founded powerful new denominations and championed social reform when Leicester(shire) became a hub of Christian Socialism and Secularism. Closing sections reflect on the church’s past and future, as it faces debates as fundamental as any previously encountered.

Download or read book Leicestershire Food and Drink written by Rupert Matthews and published by History Press. This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its historic market towns and its long history of livestock farming, Leicestershire holds an important place in the history of Britain's food. This exploration of the county's fare sets food and drink against the character of Leicestershire to discover how the landscape, history, and culture have shaped the county's diet. Each chapter opens with a short appreciation of the beauties and resources of the area that have influenced that type of food or drink, before moving on to describe traditional ingredients or products and recipes for famed specialties such as the Melton Mowbray pork pie. From time-honored Stilton cheese to the traditionally brewed Baz's Bonce Blower, reputedly the strongest real ale on tap, Leicestershire has an abundance of food and drink to celebrate. This book is a delightful read and useful guide for anyone who cares about sourcing and enjoying real food and understanding the history behind it.
Download or read book Cheltenham Before the Spa written by Alex Craven and published by University of London Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The familiar image of Cheltenham, a large and prosperous former spa town, world-famous on account of its Georgian and Regency architecture, its festivals and educational establishments, masks an earlier history. While numerous descriptions of the town have been published over the years, most say little about the many centuries of its existence before the 1740s, when it began to develop as a fashionable resort. This is the fullest account ever attempted to chronicle those centuries, from the late Saxon period until the 18th century. In this period, Cheltenham developed into a successful small town, ranged along a single main street, with the market and trades serving not only its own needs but also those of the surrounding countryside. It draws on a range of documentary sources preserved in local and national archives, many of them never examined in detail before. It therefore helps to explain the foundations upon which present-day Cheltenham was constructed.
