Book Description
Excerpt from A History of Liverpool This book is an attempt to present the life-story of the community of Liverpool in a concise and consecutive narrative, designed rather for the citizen than for the professed historical student. It makes no claim to be regarded as a final or authoritative treatment of its subject; for, though it contains new facts or new views upon a good many points, its author is well aware that a vast deal of painstaking investigation will still be necessary before any such treatment will be possible. On the other hand it does not aim at being suitable for use in elementary schools: I am glad to think that a little book, designed for that purpose, is being prepared by an abler pen. Nor does this book pretend to supersede preceding works on the same theme: its scale and plan having necessitated the omission of great masses of fact for which the inquirer will still repair to Baines and Picton. In view of the purpose of the book, it has been thought wise not to load its pages with references to authorities. I have, however, added in an appendix a short descriptive essay on the principal sources from which information can be drawn on the history of Liverpool.

Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Tales of Old Liverpool Mr. Caleb Crossley was a wealthy man. He lived in a style of great magnificence at his mansion, a short distance from town; gave frequent routs and parties to his contemporary magnates and their families; kept his coach and pair and a large retinue of servants; and, in a manner, richly merited the pseudonym which old Liverpudlians christened him - namely, Caleb Croesus.

Book Description
Excerpt from Liverpool a Few Years Since IN the year 1852, Liverpool 0. Few Yea/rs Since, by An Old Stager, was republished in a more abiding form than it had previously assumed in the columns of the Liverpool Albion. The little book sold off rapidly, notwithstanding its being somewhat expensive, as compared with the wonderfully cheap publications of the day, and it is now out of print. It has many a time and oft been suggested that a further and cheaper issue would be acceptable to the Liverpool public. The publisher has, therefore, assumed the responsibility of the present issue; and, learning that such was his intention, I have ventured to preface the original preface by a word or two in explanation of the cir cumstances and surroundings under which the Author penned these sketches.

Book Description
Excerpt from Liverpool: In King Charles the Second's Time The survey of his property in Liverpool, prepared by Edward Moore of Bank Hall for the guidance of William, his son and heir, and drawn up in 1668, has long been known to historians. It formed one of the early volumes of the Chetham Society's publications, and was edited in 1847 by the late Mr. Thomas Heywood. The original manuscript at that time, and for some years after, was in the possession of Mr. Thomas Moore of Seacombe, who claimed descent from the Moores of Bank Hall. At his death in 1879 it was bought by Mr. Henry Young of Liverpool, who decided to publish it, so that its valuable and quaint description of the town, as it was in the reign of Charles the Second, might be accessible to the general reader. For this purpose the late Sir James Picton was asked to prepare it for the press, and he actually began the work, which was however not completed, and at his death the matter was allowed to rest until the present editor undertook the task. Thus, though the manuscript is not printed for the first time, it has never before been published, its issue to members of the Chetham Society not constituting publication. Further, being printed for the members of the Chetham Society, a very limited number of copies was issued, so that the work is rare and practically only known to experts.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Poetry of Catullus The favourites of the gods are released from life before they have had time to outstay their youth. The tribute to those who died young is tribute to the youth which they never lived to lose - ih part, no doubt, objective, but in part also subjective, and prompted by the thought expressed in that line of Thackeray: Oh, the brave days, when we were twenty-one!
