Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Historical Account of the Worshipful Company of Girdlers, London After two and a half years of work, done in spare hours, and at times, it must be confessed, a little wearisome, especially when so many old documents and manuscripts had to be consulted, I have at length put together this little History of the Girdlers´ Company, and now that it is finished I must confess to being struck with somewhat the same feelings of dismay as occurred to the small boy in "Pickwick," who learnt his alphabet and wondered whether it was worth while going through so much to accomplish so little; but however far this little book falls short of what I wished and intended it to be, if the result of it is, as I hope it will be, to draw still closer together that bond of brotherhood which unites all true Girdlers, I shall have the satisfaction of knowing that my labours have not been in vain. In conclusion I wish to acknowledge, as freely and as publicly as I can, the great assistance I derived from the late father of the Company, Mr. George William Rich, of Hounslow.
