Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Victoria History of the Counties of England, Vol. 1 of 4: Leicestershire It is, however, to John Nichols, that we may well assign the title of the historian of Leicestershire. Nichols was the son of Edward Nichols, a baker of Islington, and was apprenticed to William Bowyer, the printer whose partner and biographer he afterwards became. He developed tastes for antiquarian research at an early age, but it was probably in consequence of his marriage with his second wife, Martha, daughter of William Green of Hinckley, in 1778, that lead to his interest in the county of Leicester. In 1795 he published the first two parts of The History and Antiquities of the Town and County of Leicester; the second part of the fourth and last volume of his history was not completed till 181 1. His work, as is stated on the title page, includes Burton's description of the county published in 1622, and the later collections Of Thomas Staveley, Rev. Samuel Carte, Mr. Peck, and Sir Thomas Cave. He was assisted by Richard Gough and many local helpers, his acknowledgements to Whom fill several pages of his preface. Nichols was a most careful and acciirate compiler, and in genealogy and heraldry there are few county historians to compare to him; in archae ology and architecture, however, we cannot expect a standard higher than was set at the time. His work will always stand high among the best of the English county histories. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In his last years, desirous above all things to secure the future of the work which he had so long directed, he transferred the whole of his interests in the History, with all the materials in his possession, to the University of London, in order that the Institute of Historical Research might from that time onwards carry on to its appointed end the task which had claimed the greater part of his time and energy for more than thirty years. The History is his memorial. Whatever developments may be in store for it, his name will ever come first in its story, and it is fitting that this volume shall begin with a record of his life and work.

This book was released on 2017-11-26 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Victoria History of the Counties of England Lancashire, Vol. 4 The privileges which John promised to the occu pants of the burgages are included under the general phrase all the liberties and free customs which any free borough on the sea has in our land.' This, if taken literally, would place Liverpool from the outset at the same level of burghal liberties as Bristol and Southampton but probably nothing of the sort was intended, and the phrase is to be taken merely as securing to the burgesses personal liberty, freedom from service, free tenure of land, and exemption from the payment of tolls within the limits of the borough, though seemingly not beyond them. The grants of John are essentially promises to individuals, not formal concessions of powers to an organized community. During the next twenty-two years the borough was doubtless governed by a royal bailiff or steward, and the burgesses were represented, as in the rural period, by a reeve. Probably, however, 1207 saw also the establishment of a weekly market and an annual fair, the erection of a mill, and perhaps of a chapel.
