Download or read book The History of England Vol 1 Of 10 written by John Lingard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of England, Vol. 1 of 10: From the First Invasion by the Romans to the Accession of William and Mary in 1688 Since the year 1819, in which the first portion of this work was sent to the press, many new sources of information have been opened to the writer of English history. From time to time ancient documents of high interest and indisputable authority have been rescued from oblivion by searches made under the auspices of the Record Commission, or through the zeal and enterprise of literary societies, and of private individuals. It has been my endeavour to embody the substance of all such discoveries in this present library edition, not indeed by the introduction of notes or dissertations at corresponding epochs, but by inter weaving the new matter with the old in one conti nuons narrative throughout the work. At the same time I have availed myself of the opportunity to fix the dates of events with greater precision, to correct former errors of the pen and of the press, and to alter certain paragraphs, occasionally whole chapters, of the last edition, by recasting or expanding them in con formity with the improvements which I wished to introduce.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Revolutions in English History, Vol. 1 In taking up such a theme as the Revolutions in English History, it is probable that no two writers would be agreed as to the best method of dealing with it-or as to the principle that should determine the selection of material, and where to stop. On these points, and on many beside, I have to throw myself on the candour of the reader. The course I have taken has been chosen after the best thought I could bestow on the subject. In the further prosecution of my object, I hope to avail myself freely of the rich material in the State Paper Office, still in manuscript, and which, thanks to the present Master of the Rolls, is becoming more accessible every day for the pur poses of history.

This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of England Under the Anglo-Saxon Kings, Vol. 1 of 2 An epoch of great convulsions would scarcely seem to be consistent with the developement of the higher forms of life. Perhaps my estimate of the Middle Ages, which is rather more favourable than that commonly taken, has been coloured by the same tendency to believe in growth rather than in sudden and violent revolutions. It is difficult to study a literature and laws that are as English as our own in spirit and purpose without feeling that we have inherited good as well as evil from the past.

This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the English Revolution, Vol. 1: From the Accession of Charles I IT may be asked why, after the many works that have appeared in England on the subject of which these volumes treat, it has been thought necessary to translate the present work. For an answer the reader is referred to M. Guizot's pre face, in which he gives his reasons for writing the book at all. There, after doing full justice to the merit of those authors who have enriched English literature with their views of this im portant period in the national life of their coun try, he shows that a complete history Of the English revolution is still found wanting, and that the French revolution having placed the events of 1688 in a new light, the narrative of Hume and other historians are no longer suffi cient to satisfy the present age.
