Book Description
Excerpt from Studies in Nidderdale: Upon Notes and Observations Other Than Geological, Made During the Progress of the Government Geological Survey of the District, 1867-1872 While hesitating to tax the patience of the reader, by introducing the subjects of these studies in the form of a commentary upon the text, a justification for this course is found in the Gaelic word 'Strath, ' upon the very first page. This brings us to perhaps the most important, the last, and certainly the least expected outcome of these Studies, viz.: - the former existence of a Gaelic population upon this area. That such a result was unexpected, may be shown by the effort in the footnote, (p. 1) to treat 'Strath' as Welsh, and by the fact that in the enumeration of the successive races, that have populated the District, (Study IX, p.p. 69-87) there is an omission of any mention of the Gael. It was not till the long list of words in the Glossary had been carefully worked out, that it became evident, not only that several of them are Gaelic, but that from their nature, it is impossible that they could be imported words. Lovers of Dialects have long been familiar with the Gaelic word (Na) nor for than, but its presence in England has not been accounted for. Several place names are Gaelic; names of pastures are especially Gaelic, and from their general character and local application forbid the idea of importation. Further particulars will be found in the commentary on the Gaelic element in the Glossary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Mrs Hibbert's Pick Me Up
Author: Joanna MoodyPublisher: The History Press
ISBN: 0752496832
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 58
Book Description
Joanna Dawson, a Methodist local preacher, dairy farmer and local historian, combined her religious faith with a delight in the local traditions of agriculture and domestic affairs in the Yorkshire Dales. As she moved around Nidderdale during the mid 20th century she garnered a unique knowledge, based on the stories and anecdotes of the elderly people she encountered on her travels. Her enthusiasm led to a vast collection of unsorted and unclassified information which has only recently been discovered and transcribed.Hers is a fragrant scene from the farmhouse kitchens of long ago, when large teas and suppers featured as the reward for a hard-working rural life, and the wife by the range had skills and knowledge to be learned and passed on through the generations.Mrs Hibbert's Pick-Me-Up and Other Recipes from a Yorkshire Dale is illustrated with pen and ink drawings of items used in these old kitchens and photographs taken in the Dales a century ago, which aptly complement this evocative account of rural Dales life.
