Book Description
This is the authorized history of the Hurt family. It starts with the purchase of The Green Hall, Ashburne, by Thomas Hurt in 1489 and traces their move to Casterne Hall, near Ilam in the Manifold Valley, where records show they were present in 1600. The text also examines the family's connection with Alderwasley Hall near Wirksworth, where the family moved in the 18th century and remained until the 1930s. It looks in detail at the known history of each generation and is augmented by a substantial number of photographs of family members, Hurt family life and their Derbyshire homes. It also documents the Hurt family's connection with other notable Derbyshire families including Sir Richard Arkwright and the Strutts, Cavendish and Manners families.

Book Description
Water control and management have been fundamental to the building of human civilisation. In Europe, the regulation of major rivers, the digging of canals and the wetland reclamation schemes from the sixteenth to nineteenth centuries, generated new typologies of waterscapes with significant implications for the people who resided within them. This book explores the role of waterways as a form of heritage, culture and sense of place and the potential of this to underpin the development of cultural tourism. With a multidisciplinary approach across the social sciences and humanities, chapters explore how the control and management of water flows are among some of the most significant human activities to transform the natural environment. Based upon a wealth and breadth of European case studies, the book uncovers the complex relationships we have with waterways, the ways that they have been represented over recent centuries and the ways in which they continue to be redefined in different cultural contexts. Contributions recognise not only valuable assets of hydrology that are at the core of landscape management, but also more intangible aspects that matter to people, such as their familiarity, affecting what is understood as the fluvial sense of place. This highly original collection will be of interest to those working in cultural tourism, cultural geography, heritage studies, cultural history, landscape studies and leisure studies.
