Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters Written During a Tour Through South Wales, in the Year 1803, and at Other Times: Containing Views of the History, Antiquities, and Customs of That Part of the Principality; And Interspersed With Observations on Its Scenery, Agriculture, Botany, Mineralogy, Trade and Manufactures Wales, from its numerous productions, it calculated to afford. The remarks of those who have travelled for pleasure have generally partaken of the nature of their motives; and the inaccuracy of their descrip tions has, to'o often, resembled the rapidity of their steps. Useful travel has a twofold object. It ended-s vows to benefit the country it. Visits, while it labours to accumulate advantages for its own. If in asoer taining facts I have sometimes slightly animadverted upon authors, who fancy themselves entitled to more generation and respect, and who conceive I have been too free with their works, I say, disclaiming every idea of personality, Amicus Plato, Anxious Socrates, Jed magi: amim Veritas.

Excerpt: ... of the river, they place it upon a level part of the rock, and with a flat piece of board, accommodated with a handle, they beat it till they suppose the dirt is sufficiently discharged, and then spread it upon the large stones lying in the river to dry. How far such a plan may be economical, I know not; but it saves fuel, an article of consequence to the poor of this district. The summer was uncommonly hot and dry, and the contributary streams to Teifi were unable to furnish their accustomed supplies, so that the bed of the river was left dry. No stream had run for some weeks, and the little water in the pools was almost used or evaporated. The inconvenience arising to the town may be better imagined than expressed: a general want of this essential article was'experienced, and dreading still worse in future, a general consternation seized the minds of the people, who began to believe that a judgment had fallen upon the place, and that their great and venerable benefactor would never be able to befriend them any more. After visiting the woods of Henllan, and that part of the vale above Llandyssil, we turned our steps towards the sea. Leaving Mr. Lloyd's of Bronwyn on our left, and passing by Capel Drinidad, we came to a spot called Castell Gwythern, where stood the palace of Vortigern, struck down by lightning as a judgment on the numerous crimes of that incestuous Prince: it is a high precipitous rock, without the least vestige of a building, and was probably no more than a British military post. They have a curious contrivance in this country for the preparation of their new corn for the mill. As there is seldom any old corn by the time of harvest, necessity obliges them to turn the new into bread before it is naturally sufficiently...

Download or read book Social Disorder in Britain 1750 1850 written by J. E. Thomas and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-07-30 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries revolutionary dissent, political upheaval and social protest spread throughout Europe - and Wales was no exception. In this unique examination of British social history, J.E. Thomas focuses upon the power of the local gentry in Wales, and their relationship with the poor and potentially revolutionary population. Early explosions of protest were seen all over Wales, coinciding with the aftermath of the American Revolution, and the equally seismic events of the French Revolution, while later revolts went on to provide serious challenges to the British state. 'Social Disorder in Britain' is an important contribution to the study of the history of religion, social protest and the rise of revolutionary movements, and will be essential reading for students and researchers of British history as well as those interested in revolution more generally.
