Excerpt from The East Riding of Yorkshire The book is the result of a very careful survey, made, expressly for the purpose of writing these pages, during the Long Vacation of 1903. Notes were then taken on the spot; and, although I cannot hope to have escaped from some inac curacies, and although changes, in some instances, may since have taken place, yet it is hoped that this little volume may form a fairly reliable record of the East Riding churches as they appeared in the summer in question.

Excerpt from Old Yorkshire But Old Yorkshire may be brought more close to us than this. We need to see how people lived and worked; the homes in which they abode the churches in which they prayed and were interred; their occupations and amusements; the language which they spoke the dress which they wore-all this can be re-created by the student as if by a magician's wand. And more than this, we may gauge by unerring tests the intellectual capacity of past generations, and frequently, with shame be it said, to the disadvantage of the present. The West Riding, during the last two centuries, has become the most prosperous Of the three. Five centuries ago, Leeds, Bradford, and Halifax were Obscure market towns, difficult of access, and of less note than Knaresborough or Richmond at the present day. Middlesbro' at the beginning Of the present century had only a population Of some fifty people the over-sea merchants had their homes at Hull, Beverley, and Scarbro', whilst York had only a portion of the same trade filtered through Hull. The worsted trade was always in the West Riding, although pursued to a comparatively. Trifling extent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Stories and Sketches Relating to Yorkshire There is only a transient, hectic flush in the enjoyment of unrighteous pleasure; for this soon kills the true life of man. You may think, reader, as many others have imagined, that much of the penalty which men in voluntarily pay for the indulgence of unlicensed desire is the result of conventional theory or education, mov ing the soul, as it were, out of a perfect animal condi tion. Truly, if we may credit the old Saxon chronicles, those early barons did live like tangible wolves or other natural brute beasts; but that all this tended to indi vidual well-being or to national prosperity, we must emphatically deny.

Excerpt from About Yorkshire The people are most interesting; they are almost always kind and genial, full Of a quaint racy humour, and, Spite Of their proverbial thrift, hospitable to strangers. The dialect differs in the three Ridings; it is not easy to understand, but even when unintelligible there is in it a quaint mellowness Of sound in perfect keeping with the comfortable well-kept cottages, nestling two and three together under a tree, or with the large gray farm steads, surrounded by golden ricks, of which we got glimpses in our journeys through the broad dales that are such distinctive features Of the county.

Excerpt from The North Riding of Yorkshire A word of apology is possibly needed for the free introduction of references. These serve, it is hoped, a double purpose. In the first place they discriminate, moie OI less completely, between statements for which the writer is primarily Ie sponsible, and statements that are made on the authority of others. In the second place, they constitute a useful index to the numerous papers and notices dealing with the Riding that are scat tered up and down in a number of volumes. The procedure is not without precedent: and, anyhow, it is hoped that its practical convenience may te deem it from any charge of pedantry to which it might otherwise seem open. Lastly, the thanks of the writer are due to Mr St John Hope fo. Permission to introduce the plans ofjervaulx and Easby Abbeys; to Mr William Brown and the Yorkshire Archaeological Society for the plan of Mount Grace Priory; to Messrs Love and Malcomson for the plans of Pickering and Scarbrough Castles; to the Rev. A. R. T. Eales, m.a., and Mr F. C. Bayard, for the loan of books of reference; and to the clergy of the Riding for the consistent kindness with which they have assisted him in the work of exploration.

Excerpt from Old Yorkshire: Second Series There is an apology due to the subscribers for the delay which has clogged the passage of the book through the press. That delay arose, in a limited sense, by the Change from the old lines, and the transfer of the venture to other hands. But it was further increased and maintained beyond all proportion, and until out of control, by the political crisis which consumed the closing months of the present year. AS a contribution to the history of his time, the Editor records his belief that such a crisis will not readily recur being, however, forewarned, he will now take care that, in the event Of its recurrence, it shall not produce a similar effect upon the appearance of any subsequent volume of this Series.
