Excerpt from An Historical Account of Those Parishes in the County of Middlesex: Which Are Not Described in the Environs of London The district treated of by the Author in his former Work, hav ing comprised so large a portion of the County-of Middlesex, he has been induced, at the suggestion of some of his friends, to offer to the public a similar account of those parishes which he has not already described and he presumes that another volume on the Topography of Middlesex will not be unacceptable, as there is no History of that County extant; nor is there any but a very imper 'fect account of the Antiquities of the Honour and Palace of Hamp ton court, which forms one of the most prominent features of the present volume. Although many general views of the palace have been engraved, yet the various beautiful specimens of gothic archi tecture which there occur have never been delineated for. Publica tion with tolerable accuracy: of the great hall there is an engraving in some esteem (now become scarce), by Vardy, but the form of the arches is so inaccurate as to destroy in a great degree its resemblance.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Rich in titles on English life and social history, this collection spans the world as it was known to eighteenth-century historians and explorers. Titles include a wealth of travel accounts and diaries, histories of nations from throughout the world, and maps and charts of a world that was still being discovered. Students of the War of American Independence will find fascinating accounts from the British side of conflict. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
