Download or read book Chorlton Cum Hardy written by Andrew Simpson and published by Phillimore. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are plenty of books exploring the history of Manchester during the nineteenth century, but the surrounding rural communities have been neglected. We know much about conditions in the new industrial city, but there have been no studies of the townships that made a major contribution to its development. Here for the first time is a detailed account of an agricultural community that was just 4 miles from the town. Much of the narrative is rooted in the people who lived here, using their words and records. It tells of daily lives, setting them in a national context, and balances the routine with the sensational - including murder, infanticide and a rebellion. Partly a narrative of rural life, and a description of a community’s relationship with a city, the book also includes guided walks around Chorlton to bring this history to life. A database of references and sources is also provided.This is the story of a group of people that history has forgotten and scholarship has ignored.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “utterly brilliant” and deeply researched guide to the sights, smells, endless wonders, and profound changes of nineteenth century British history (Books Monthly, UK). Step into the past and experience the world of Victorian England, from clothing to cuisine, toilet arrangements to transport—and everything in between. A Visitor’s Guide to Victorian England is “a brilliant guided tour of Charles Dickens’s and other eminent Victorian Englishmen’s England, with insights into where and where not to go, what type of people you’re likely to meet, and what sights and sounds to watch out for . . . Utterly brilliant!” (Books Monthly, UK). Like going back in time, Higgs’s book shows armchair travelers how to find the best seat on an omnibus, fasten a corset, deal with unwanted insects and vermin, get in and out of a vehicle while wearing a crinoline, and avoid catching an infectious disease. Drawing on a wide range of sources, this book blends accurate historical details with compelling stories to bring alive the fascinating details of Victorian daily life. It is a must-read for seasoned social history fans, costume drama lovers, history students, and anyone with an interest in the nineteenth century.
