Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorials of Old Herefordshire This volume does not profess to be a History of Herefordshire, neither can it advance the slightest claim to cover so wide a ground. A number of writers - all directly or indirectly connected with the County - have presented within a necessarily limited compass phases of subjects especially their own, thereby bringing under the eye of the reader topics of varied local and historical interest. The dead past has been in some measure brought to light, contrasting in many particulars favourably with the living present and its increasingly strenuous struggle for existence. At all events, in virtue of faithful and accurate research, we are enabled to view our forefathers, and the conditions under which they lived and thrived, with less of prejudice than the popular authors of the early Victorian era. As regards the men of old time it may be affirmed:- Their truth and ours are diverse. It is well. Each cycle brings fresh knowledge. Theirs for them, As ours for us. - One kind; yet different growths. I have to thank my contributors, collectively and individually, for their generous collaboration, and with that to express a sincere conviction, that so much painstaking research and literary excellence will be as largely appreciated by the public as by their most grateful colleague, Compton Reade.
