Excerpt: ... 1 indeed, the inhabitants of the town of Bridgwater are much blessed by a kind Providence in having such sources of supply around them. Our neighbourhood is honoured by having been mixed up with the history of Alfred the Great. He laid the foundation of all England's power. Before his time the towns in England were scarcely worthy of the name. In giving an account of the historical matters we must not omit one of the most important events of the kingdom, about the year 880, as upon its issue the liberty and happiness of its people rested. Alfred, or iElfred, the Great King of England, was indebted to the protection afforded him by a herdsman and his wife in the Isle of.zethingley, now known as Athelney, which lies about seven miles from Bridgwater. Tradition says that when Alfred first came to Athelney he was set by the gude wife to watch a cake by the fire while she went to feed the pigs, and on her return he received a scolding for having neglected his charge. At length he made himself known, and built a fort for the security of himself and family and a few faithful servants who repaired thither to him. When he had been about a year in this retreat, having been informed that some of his subjects had attacked a great army of the Danes, killed their chief, and taken their magical standard, he issued letters giving notice where he was, and inviting the nobility to come and consult with him. Much importance was attached to the fact of the magical standard being taken, as the Danes were very superstitious. This banner, Sir Thomas Spelman says, had on it the image of a raven, magically wrought by the three sisters of Hinguar and Hubba, having been begun and finished in a single noontide, on purpose for their expedition, in revenge of their...

Book excerpt: Spring was late in 1913 and Edward Thomas decided to go and search for winter's grave and the tell-tale signs of season's turn - he set out to cycle westwards from London to the Quantocks. Edward Thomas 1878-1917 turned from writing prose to poetry in 1914. His work as a poet has been widely celebrated and admired - Ted Hughes described Thomas as "the father of us all". The Pursuit of Spring, originally published in 1914, bridges the divide between Thomas the journalist/critic and Thomas the highly regarded poet.

Book excerpt: The publicity given to the recent attacks on Psychic Photography has been out of all proportion to their scientific value as evidence. When Sir Arthur Conan Doyle returned to Great Britain, after his successful tour in America, the controversy was in full swing. With characteristic promptitude he immediately decided to meet these negative attacks by a positive counter-attack, and this volume is the outcome of that decision. We have used the term Spirit Photography on the title-page as being the popular name by which these phenomena are known. This does not imply that either Sir Arthur or I imagine that everything supernormal must be of spirit origin. There is, undoubtedly, a broad borderland where these photographic effects may be produced from forces contained within ourselves. This merges into those higher phenomena of which many cases are here described. Those desiring fuller information on this subject are referred to Photo graphing the Invisible, by James Coates.
