Hardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Reprint. A HISTORY OF EVERYDAY THINGS IN ENGLAND 1914-1968 S. E. Ellacott. B. T. Batsford, London 1977 Reprint ISBN 0713416548 224pp Illustrated hardback. This copy is in FINE unmarked condition in an unclipped FINE dustwrapper that is sunned to the spine. A History of Everyday Things in England is a series of four history books for children written by Marjorie Quennell and her husband Charles Henry Bourne Quennell (aka C. H. B.) between 1918 and 1934. The books concern English history between 1066 and 1914. The series has been in print as late as year 2000. Although they generally went out of print after the 1960s. Marjorie did many of the illustrations. The books sold in thousands and were reputed to have been used by more than eight hundred schools in Britain alone and more were in use in overseas in English-speaking schools. Translations of a number of titles have been made into Russian, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Swedish and Danish. The books were illustrated with some coloured drawings of mostly costume, half tones and a profusion of line drawings made by the authors. All the books went into numerous revisions, with the information upgraded to take account of modern knowledge. The books were especially strong on housing, agriculture and the way people earned their livings. They were described by Hector Bolitho as "transforming teaching". In an era when history focused on the Great Man and political forces as the drivers of history, these books about the day to day life of the common person were ahead of their time, which would not come into the fore until the 1970s. In 1968 author S. E. Ellacott published a fifth volume titled A History of Everyday Things in England: Volume V: 1914-1968. Ref U5. Seller Inventory # 005889
