Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whitby is well known today as a seaside resort and a picturesque place to visit, with its piers, boats, fine sands and, overlooking its tangle of red-roofed houses, the ruins of its Abbey in one of the most splendid settings in Britain for such romantic remains. But few of its many visitors would guess the long history of the town or its significance, from time to time, in national affairs. The only comprehensive history of Whitby, it rapidly sold out and Dr White, its author, of ancient Whitby stock, has now fully revised and updated his book, with some new illustrations and interpretations. This new edition will continue as the definitive work on Whitby.

Book excerpt: If you've ever wondered where Cross Bar Lane, Banjo Cottage, the Blue Robin and the Bug House cinema were, or how Jacky Fields, Caller Beck, Egton Village, Gallows Close and Cock Mill got their names, then A History of Whitby & its Place Names will be of interest to you. This absorbing and well-researched book by local historian Colin Waters is full of fascinating facts laid out in an easy to read A - Z format and can just as easily be dipped into or read from cover to cover. With explanations of the origins of the town's street, village, and place names and how they are linked to people and events in Whitby's history (sometimes as far back as Roman and Viking times), this interesting book presents a new way of looking at the area's ancient origins. Learn how French wartime prisoners were used as local slave labour, how religious frescoes were lost to history because a local photographer failed to catch them on film before they were destroyed, and where Whitby's Roman and Viking settlers built their religious temples. Illustrated with both old and modern images, this succinct guide to old Whitby and its place names should be on the bookshelf of every lover of local history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Whitby, and Streoneshalh Abbey, Vol. 1: With a Statistical Survey of the Vicinity to the Distance of Twenty-Five Miles For its numerous and interesting embellishments, the work is indebted to the pencil of Mr. Bird, and the skill of various engravers. Some of the plates are etchings by Mr. Bird himself. To the expense of the portrait of capt. Coon, a gentleman in Whitby contributed five gnineas, from respect to the memory of our illustrious navigator. The mar and plan have been constructed by the author and his friend, with great labour; yet, partly by their own oversight, and partly by that of the engravers, a few inaccuracies have occurred. The printers, as well as the author, have bestowed much pains on the correction of the sheets; but no work of such extent is wholly free from typographical errors. Mistakes of another kind are also too frequent. Most of these will be found corrected in the notes on subse3 quent sheets; in which form, not only corrections, but supplements, are often introduced. Such blemishes are chiefly owing to this circum stance, that in order to save time, the different portions of the work were printed in succession, immediately after they were compiled. The first part of a chapter, and even of a sheet, was gone to the press, before' the last part was written; so that the author, having the printer close' at his heels, was unable to avail himself of any new light which might be thrown, during his progress, on subjects previously discussed; except in the way of supplementary notes. This mode of proceeding has been productive of other evils: the latter part of the history is much compressed, while the former is perhaps too difl'use and the work has swelled to more than double the size originally intended: in consequence of which, the printing of it, which was not expected to occupy more than a year, has required upwards of two years and a half; two volumes have been produced instead of one; and an advan on the price proposed to the early subscribers has been rendered una voidable though this advance is very far from being proportionate to the increase of the book, or even of its embellishments. If it be asked, Why then was this injudicious plan adopted? Why was not the whole prepared, before any portion was printed? My answer is, that, had the latter method been pursued, the work, instead of being now published, would probably not have been ready for the press for several months to come, andthe publication must have been delayed at least two years longer; in which case, one of its principal ends, the relief pf M r. Winter's family, might have been in a great measure defeated. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
