Softcover Printed Full Colour. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. ### Discovering: Local History - No.158 - 1977 By David Iredale ### ~#~ THIS BOOK: Classified as FINE: This book is a 1977 publication. 'A pocket guide Local History'. The binding is still tight, and the inner pages are clean and sharp. This book may have a previous owners name on free-end paper. ## People are curious about old England, its markets, ports and villages, its bustling mill communities. They ask about the making of the English landscape, that incredible variety of natural and man-made scenes. The local historian's task is to satisfy this curiosity, and this book is for people who wish to discover local history. Every community has an account, which it is always possible to trace to some extent; even when there is no written evidence, place names, archaeological finds, buildings can all contribute to the story. Local history seeks to discover the origins, growth and evolution of a community. Still, mostly it is about people, not the great men of their times ? rulers, generals, statesmen ? but the ordinary men and women who, no less than their masters, altered the face of the land. ~#~ SHIRE PUBLICATIONS the DISCOVERY SERIES: This top-rated series of professionally researched and illustrated guides are published in England in the late 1960s to date.
