Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Quarter Sessions From Queen Elizabeth to Queen Anne: Illustrations of Local Government and History, Drawn From Original Records (Chiefly of the County of Devon) This volume consists almost entirely of a series of papers contributed to Fraser´s Magazine during the last two years. I have been encouraged to reprint them in a more permanent form, but the utmost that I can hope for them is that they may be recognized as affording some glimpses of the history of England from a new point of view. It is not easy to find any material for history which has been neglected by the diligent explorers of recent times, but I cannot discover that any use has been hitherto made of the records of "Quarter Sessions." They are not a very inviting study, for the great bulk of them is composed of merely formal and very monotonous documents, from which the more valuable facts can only be extracted by much patient labour. I venture to think, however, that the labour has not been without its reward, as it has recovered some clear and most trustworthy evidence respecting the condition of the provincial districts of England in former times.
