A History of Reading

A History of Reading

Stuart Hylton

Phillimore Co Ltd
2007
sidottu
Few towns of its size have as rich and varied a history as Reading, and few hide the fact better. For the past two centuries and more growth and modernisation have swept away much of the evidence of the past. But, for a thousand year before that, Reading played a major role in the affairs of the nation. King Alfred fought in the town for control of his kingdom, and in medieval times Reading was an international centre for pilgrimage and governance. Parliaments met here, and kings and princes were married and buried locally. The town has been sacked by Vikings, besieged in the Civil War and saw fighting in the streets during the so-called 'Bloodless Revolution' that overthrew King James II in 1688. Since then, Reading's fortunes have been transformed by a series of revolutions in transport. The town today serves as an effective illustration of the benefits and the challenges that improvements have brought to the nation as a whole.Its individual character is exemplified by the extraordinary range of people who have lived here, from Thomas a Becket to the most controversial person ever to hold the office of Archbishop of Canterbury, from the man who effectively ran the country through the minority of a king to one of our least competent prime ministers. This lively and well illustrated account of Reading's colourful history will shed surprising light on the rich past of a community that has never been slow in embracing the future.

A History of Manchester

A History of Manchester

Stuart Hylton

Phillimore Co Ltd
2010
sidottu
Manchester has a local history that is unlike anywhere else’s. Although, as its name suggest, there is evidence beneath its streets of the first mud and timber fort built by the Romans some two thousand years ago – and of continuous occupation ever since – the city’s worldwide fame and reputation derives from its extraordinary development over the past two and a half centuries.Manchester was the shock city of the early 19th century, right at the cutting edge of dramatic changes in our domestic society – technological, social, economic and political. The radical new relationships forged there between employer and employee greatly influenced the development of Marxism, with all its consequences for the 20th century. In transport terms alone, the city led the way with the first real canal, the first real railway, the first public bus services and the first municipal airport. Its local government set a pace for enterprise that the rest of the country could only follow.The social and economic problems that arose here became matters of national concern, while the political issues that stirred the city led to national reform. Disraeli coined the term ‘the Manchester School’ to describe the middle-class radicals who were the prime movers of the Anti-Corn Law League. The Manchester Guardian held the attention of the nation’s decision-makes for many decades before it became a national newspaper, and when the population took to the streets they shook the government to its core, arousing fears of revolution.Stuart Hylton’s entertaining account of the great city’s entire story was first published in 2003 and received widespread acclaim. It has been expanded and updated for this new edition, which includes over 100 carefully chosen and well captioned illustrations. It should be the initial point of departure for anyone wishing to know more about Manchester’s illustrious past and the city’s prominent place in the nation’s fortunes.

Confessions of a Small Press Racketeer

Confessions of a Small Press Racketeer

Stuart Ross

Anvil Press Publishers Inc
2005
nidottu
'Confessions of a Small Press Racketeer' is equal parts literary memoir, advice for the emerging writer, and reckless tirade. Ross has been active in the Canadian literary underground for a quarter of a century: he's sold thousands of his books in the streets, published and edited magazines, trained insurgents in his Poetry Boot Camps, and started Canada's first Small Press Book Fair. Where the media focusses only on the glamorous literary lives of its few superstars, Ross gives us a glimpse into How Writers Really Live. In 'Confessions', he declares himself the King of Poetry, explores his floundering Jewish identity, wanders into the best bookstore in Canada, offers a crash course in avoiding writing, pisses off his publishers, runs a renegade Canada booth at the International Book Fair in Managua, and begs egomaniacal young writers to stop bugging the hell out of him. Many of these essays are culled from Ross's bimonthly "Hunkamooga" column in 'Word: Toronto's Literary Calendar'. Others are written specifically for this collection. " 'Confessions of a Small Press Racketeer' is a wonderful book - funny, outrageous, and acute. I'll even say it's the best short-essay collection aout writing life that I've read in ages." - Canadian Literature

A New History of the Picts

A New History of the Picts

Stuart McHardy

Luath Press Ltd
2011
pokkari
When the Romans came north to what is now modern Scotland they encountered the fierce and proud warrior society known as the Picts, who despite their lack of discipline and arms, managed to prevent the undefeated Roman Army from conquering the northern part of Britain, just as they later repulsed the Angles and the Vikings. A New History of the Picts is an accessible true history of the Picts, who are so often misunderstood. New historical analysis, recently discovered evidence and an innovative Scottish perspective will expose long held assumptions about the native people. This controversial text contests that Scottish history has long since been dominated and distorted by misleading perspectives. A New History of the Picts discredits the idea that the Picts were a strange historical anomaly and shows them to be the descendants of the original inhabitants of the land, living in a series of loose tribal confederations gradually brought together by external forces to create one of the earliest states in Europe: a people, who after repulsing all invaders, merged with their cousins, the Scots of Argyll, to create modern Scotland. All of Scotland descends from the fierce Picts.
