Excerpt: ... subjecting of an opponent to the expfences of-4 law suit, and to petulant abuse from the practises in our courts, which often lay the foundations of animosities that last for hfe. "Indeed, experience has so fully shewn the "great use of these peaceable and domestic "tribunals, especially in settling matters of "account, and other mercantile transactions, "which are difficult and almost impossible to be n adjusted on a trial at lau the legislature has " established the use of them, as well in con"troversies where causes are depending, as in ' those where no actioji is brought; enacting H by 9 and 10 William the III. c. 15, that all "merchants and others, who desire to end any "controversy, suit, or quarrel, for which there "is no remedy but by personal action, or suit "in equity, may agree that their submission of "the suit to arbitration, or umpirage, shall be "' made a rule of in any of the King's courts "of record, and may insert such agreement in "f' their submission, promise, or condition of the ' arbitration bond; which agreement, being "" proved upon oath by one of the witnesses " thereto, the court shall make a rule that such submission and award shall be con"elusive." Blackstone, vol. III. p. 16. '" But although great advantages have arisen from the usual mode of arbitration, yet it is liable to one strong objection, viz. that the arbitrators being chosen by the parties in the dispute, they are too apt to consider themselves rather as the advocates for their respective friends, than as concerned to decide according to truth and justice. "On these accounts, a number of gentlemen, resident in Newcastle and its neighbourhood, (the nature of whose concerns may be expected to lead them to a particular acquaintance with...

Download or read book The Happiness of the British Working Class written by Jamie L. Bronstein and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-10 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For working-class life writers in nineteenth century Britain, happiness was a multifaceted emotion: a concept that could describe experiences of hedonic pleasure, foster and deepen social relationships, drive individuals to self-improvement, and lead them to look back over their lives and evaluate whether they were well-lived. However, not all working-class autobiographers shared the same concepts or valorizations of happiness, as variables such as geography, gender, political affiliation, and social and economic mobility often influenced the way they defined and experienced their emotional lives. The Happiness of the British Working Class employs and analyzes over 350 autobiographies of individuals in England, Scotland, and Ireland to explore the sources of happiness of British working people born before 1870. Drawing from careful examinations of their personal narratives, Jamie L. Bronstein investigates the ways in which working people thought about the good life as seen through their experiences with family and friends, rewarding work, interaction with the natural world, science and creativity, political causes and religious commitments, and physical and economic struggles. Informed by the history of emotions and the philosophical and social-scientific literature on happiness, this book reflects broadly on the industrial-era working-class experience in an era of immense social and economic change.

Download or read book Captain James Cook in Atlantic Canada written by Jerry Lockett and published by Formac Publishing Company Limited. This book was released on 2010-11-07 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The skills, knowledge and experience that took Captain James Cook to the South Seas and around the world seemed to come out of nowhere. In fact, as author Jerry Lockett has discovered, their foundation was laid during the time he spent in Atlantic Canada. His experiences on Canada's east coast and the naval men he met there shaped him to become one of the most successful explorers of all time. Cook arrived in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 1758 as a competent but undistinguished warrant officer in Britain's Royal Navy. Over the next nine years he learned the complex skill of navigation and prepared many detailed maps of the coastline and key harbours. He left with the skills and reputation that made him an obvious choice to lead a voyage of exploration to the far side of the world. In this absorbing and well-researched biography Jerry Lockett tells us of Cook's experiences as a young man and of the influential men who became his mentors and patrons. He also describes Cook's role in the key British military actions at Louisbourg and Quebec which brought an effective end to the French regime in North America.

Book excerpt: "An immense treasure trove of fact-filled and highly readable fun.” --Simon Winchester, The New York Times Book Review A Sunday Times (U.K.) Best Book of 2018 and Winner of the Mary Soames Award for History An unprecedented history of the storied ship that Darwin said helped add a hemisphere to the civilized world The Enlightenment was an age of endeavors, with Britain consumed by the impulse for grand projects undertaken at speed. Endeavour was also the name given to a collier bought by the Royal Navy in 1768. It was a commonplace coal-carrying vessel that no one could have guessed would go on to become the most significant ship in the chronicle of British exploration. The first history of its kind, Peter Moore’s Endeavour: The Ship That Changed the World is a revealing and comprehensive account of the storied ship’s role in shaping the Western world. Endeavour famously carried James Cook on his first major voyage, charting for the first time New Zealand and the eastern coast of Australia. Yet it was a ship with many lives: During the battles for control of New York in 1776, she witnessed the bloody birth of the republic. As well as carrying botanists, a Polynesian priest, and the remains of the first kangaroo to arrive in Britain, she transported Newcastle coal and Hessian soldiers. NASA ultimately named a space shuttle in her honor. But to others she would be a toxic symbol of imperialism. Through careful research, Moore tells the story of one of history’s most important sailing ships, and in turn shines new light on the ambition and consequences of the Age of Enlightenment.
