Book Description
Excerpt from On the Track of the Mail-Coach: Being a Volume of Reminiscences Personal and Otherwise The mail-coach period still has a firm, and possibly an increasing, hold on the public mind, but the officials and others who actually took part in the work of that stirring time - whether on the highroads or within the walls of post-offices - are rapidly passing away. I have been eager to preserve what those who remain, and some of those who are no more, have told me of matters within their own observation in that remote epoch, as well as what in other ways has come to my knowledge. I have included, too, such of my own recollections, not necessarily postal, as should secure continuity and cohesion in the narrative. Not all that I had to relate could be included within the limits of 'Forty Years at the Post-Office.' Many omissions, I am but too conscious, still have to be supplied. There is something yet to be written of interest about the cross-posts and other lines of mail-coach communication, and also about the coaching and posting inns which maintain an existence on the deserted mail-coach roads.

Book Description
Traumatic Tales: British Nationhood and National Trauma in Nineteenth-Century Literature explores intersections of nationalism and trauma in Romantic and Victorian literature from the emergence of British nationalism through the height of the British Empire. From the national tales of the early nineteenth century to the socially incisive realist novels that emerged later in the century, nationalism is inescapable in this literature, as much current scholarship acknowledges. Nineteenth-century national trauma, however, has only recently begun to be explored. Taking as its starting point the unsettling effects of nationalism, the essays in this collection expose the violence underlying empire-building, particularly in regard to subject identity. National violence—imperialism, colonialism and warfare—necessarily grounds nation-formation in deep-lying trauma. As the essays demonstrate, such fraught nexus are made visible in national tales as well as in political policy, exposed by means of theoretical and historical analyses to reveal psychological, political, social and individual trauma. This exploration of violence in the construction of national ideology in nineteenth-century Britain rethinks our understanding of cultural memory, national identity, imperialism, and colonialism, recent thrusts of Romantic and Victorian study in nineteenth-century literature.
