Mihi prwteritos referat si Jupiter annos, is exclamation, in which, remembering only the assures of a scrummage at football, a run to Lawford at hare-and-hounds, or a duck hunt at Swift's, every old Rugbwan will, I hope, most heartily concur. And, indeed, when we look back upon our school days, and recall to mind the many agreeable incidents that occurred to us while there, we feel disposed to wish ourselves back again once more, and come to the conclusion that leaving school was the greatest mistake we ever committed. In this retrospect our memory retains only the. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of Rugby and India These memories of Rugby and the East India College, and of fifty-five years spent in the public service, were recalled in quiet hours of home life or in conversations with intimate friends. It was at my request that my husband began to write them down for a younger generation to read. He did not live to complete them, but he left a certain amount of notes and material which had accumulated during his active life, and from this I have compiled a few concluding chapters, fully conscious of their shortcomings. My thanks are due to the Dowager Countess of Lytton, the Dowager Lady Napier and Ettrick, Lady Rose Weigall, Mrs. Arthur Arbuthnot, Mrs. H. O. Arnold-Forster, Mrs. Story-Maskelyne, and Miss Feilden for permission to include passages from letters and to reproduce portraits, also to Sir Edward Bradford and Sir Charles Lawson for friendly encouragement and advice.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rugby There is nothing new in this small book except what has happened since 1900. The present compiler most warmly thanks Dr. W. H. D. Rouse and Mr. H. C. Bradby for their freely-granted permis sion to make use of their excellent books on Rugby School (a History of Rugby School, by W. H. D. Rouse, Duckworth and Co., 1898; and Rugby, by H. C. Bradby, George Bell and Sons, Dr. Rouse has fully investigated all available records, and most of the history here contained is a bare summary of his work. In so small a compass it has been frequently necessary to condense, even to the point of obscurity. For this and many other failings the compiler wishes to apologise to any possible reader. He is glad to feel that the booklet has at least interested one reader - him self, who has found plagiarism more entertaining than one would imagine. Any accuracy it may have is due to the revising care of his friend, G. A. F. M. Chatwin, whose Rugbeian lore much exceeds the writer's, and has been most freely lavished on the purging of errors from these pages. Those that remain are solely the writer's fault.

At the very outset I am going to give the opponents of racing what they may think chapter and verse as proof conclusive of the disastrous in uence of the love of horses on a promising career.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rugby Football The Isthmian Library of Sports and Pastimes has for its chief object the instruction of the novice who is the master neither of sporting technique nor of any considerable athletic knowledge. It is our hope to win many friends from the ranks of those who are regular frequenters of the playing fields, but are unable to find there a demonstration of those first principles upon which all athletic success is based. We shall seek to make these books true primers of sport. They will take nothing for granted, nor will they assume even elementary achievements. At the same time, we venture to believe that the authors who have given us their most able and welcome assistance are so well entitled to speak, each for his own sport, that.

Download or read book Football the Rugby Game Classic Reprint written by Harry Vassall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore the original rules of rugby as well as many other historical details of the great game in this 125 year old short-but-sweet treasure. Originally published in 1889 Harry Vassall's Football, The Rugby Game briefly discusses the rules, positions, and general flow of a game of rugby. At less than 75 pages, of which nearly 20 are composed of an appendix, this is clearly a book intended to be an introduction to the sport. He opens with a brief history of rugby and the development of the game and its rules over time. From there, Vassall begins a more technical discussion of the specific positions within rugby, dedicating individual chapters to the roles of the fullback, three quarterback, halfback, and forward. The author also discusses the role of the referee, and the evolution of rugby rules. The book concludes with an appendix presenting the rules of rugby current in his time. Vassal presents the information in a thorough but easy to understand style, opening up the game (which as even its best fans will appeciate can be a little Byzantine at times) for the layman and casual fan. The chapters highlighting the specific positions are the bread and butter of Vassall's book and present the book's most important information. While the game of rugby has certainly evolved since this book's publication, many of the foundational techniques are unchanged, although it is fascinating to compare those that have with their equivalents today. For those interested in rugby, especially its history and how it used to be played (when men were men, and a pack of gigantic Welshmen charging straight at you was a good afternoon's entertainment) Vassall's book remains a worthwhile read.
