Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Walks and Wanderings in County Cardigan: Being a Descriptive Sketch of Its Picturesque, Historic, Antiquarian, Romantic and Traditional Features The old land of Ceredigion has not in the past been very fruitful of literary exertion save for religious memoirs, theological dissertations and perhaps poetry. The writers have in general neglected to give evidence of their home to the world without, and as a century ago the History of Cardiganshire was left to the "juvenile antiquarian ebullition" of Sir Samuel Rush Meyrick, so these Wanderings by moorland, forest, secluded hamlet and winding stream are the treasured notes of many holiday rambles and researches of one who, if closely bound in love to the county, is still a stranger by birth and residence. The vast storehouse of material upon Cardiganshire has been little worked until quite recent times. My original intention was to introduce chapters upon unique features of Cardiganshire life - the farm, the mine, the superstitions, folk-lore and ancient customs; but these have assumed proportions vast enough for another volume, and I reluctantly leave them in script. Thus has it fared with nonconformity, though an appendix yields a basis for further work. Lists of Mayors of Aberystwyth and Cardigan are available from early Stuart days, and of Lampeter names of port-reeves before 1800 and mayors after 1832, but the already increased bulk of the volume has excluded these invaluable data. Those interested in Aberystwyth will find ample suggestion in Mr. Eyre Evans' recent labours, and the great Abbey's exploration was chronicled by the explorer. The Sheriffs long ago met with their recorder, and the Enwogion (worthies) were honoured in the biographies of Gwynionydd and Glan Menai. Literature on the Mines has been somewhat extensive. My obligations are due to the Countess of Lisburne for permission to reproduce the portrait of the present Earl; to Mrs. Johnes and Lady Hills-Johnes for the loan of various engravings, portraits, etc.; to Major Edw. W. D. Evans, J.P. for the account of the Militia; to Mr. S. Gwbert Adams for valuable information on Cardigan town; to Principal Bebb of Lampeter, Principal Salmon of Swansea, Mr. Hall of Aberystwyth, Messrs. Thomas of Cardigan and Mr. D. Thomas of Barrow-on-Soar, for assistance in the matter of views; to my father, without whose ready advice the volume would not have been written, and other relatives, in addition to those referred to continually in the text and foot-notes. As level England has been formed geologically by the deposition of mere waste material from the surface of the Welsh mountains, so my book may appear to the Cymro mere alluvia from the inexhaustible hills; but I may surely reply that the English meadows bear fruit more readily than the untilled mountain land, and through its imperfections, of which I am but too keenly sensible, my volume may usher in a nobler attempt to delineate this isolated and almost inaccessible country.

Download or read book Cheerful with Insufficient Reason written by John Norrington-Davies and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within this book lies the story of a London-Welsh Grammar Schoolboy who attended the Edmonton County School in North London between 1938 and 1943. Devoted to extra-mural activities he became practised in the art of damage limitation when required by the teaching staff to account for his manifold shortcomings. There was no irrelevance too great that was not pursued with vigour in preference to that of academic attainment. Bombed and strafed by the enemy a fertile imagination turned to deeds of derring-do yet to come; heroic deeds to be engaged upon, varying over time, according to the film of the week. The schoolboy analyst examines, in relation to those times, family, war, education, religion, agriculture and personalities; even sex is touched upon, but tastefully!
Download or read book Thring of Uppingham written by Nigel Richardson and published by Legend Press Ltd. This book was released on 2014 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward Thring features prominently in all the educational histories of his period, and is seen as the foremost figure in independent schools in the generation after the famous Dr. Thomas Arnold of Rugby. This book draws on new material and letters discovered in an archive. And archive it was assumed had perished in a fire; it shows just how ground-breaking his reforms really were; how sound or otherwise his methods of financing Uppingham were, and why he polarized people between passionate supporters and strong opponents. This biography also includes the bitter battle over who should be his literary executor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the history of Prudence Bell's family, going back several generations to set the scene for the missionary couple,Herbert and Elizabeth, who went out to Xinzhou, Shanxi Province, China, and were brutally killed in the Boxer Rebellion in 1900. It is a thoroughly written historical account,which ends on a high note when Prudence visits the church of the martyrs in 2006, to receive an astonishing welcome, discovering she is the answer to their prayers, and that the church of her great-grandparents has a congregation of over three thousand. Quite harrowing in places, but with an ultimately happy ending, this is an inspiring read for anyone facing the challenges of truly living all-out for Christ in a hostile world.
