Book Description
1100 years ago marked the start of a Viking invasion of the Mersey region, which reached out into Chester, West Lancashire and beyond. The Vikings left behind place-names like Kirkby, Kirby, Meols and Croxteth, which can also be found in Iceland, another region they were invading. This book is about these people in peace and war, their customs, traditions, pastimes, their paganism and their Christianity, their governments and their financial centre at Chester. It also includes a section on how modern genetic research is being used to discover the descendants of these Invaders in the modern day population.

Book Description
"During the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, English numerical practices underwent a complex transformation with wide-ranging impacts on English society and modes of thought. At the beginning of the early modern period, English men and women believed that God had made humans universally numerate, although numbers were not central to their everyday lives. Over the next two centuries, rising literacy rates and the increasing availability of printed books revolutionized modes of arithmetical education, upended the balance between the multiple symbolic systems used to express popular numeracy, and contributed to a wider transformation in numbers as a technology of knowledge"--

Book Description
Researching British Probates is a guide to the over 20,000 microfilm rolls of British wills and related documents in the Family History Library of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Housed in Salt Lake City, Utah, the collection is available through 1,700 branch libraries across the country and worldwide. Few depositories in Britain itself can compete with the collection's comprehensiveness: the microfilm spans six centuries and brings together bonds, wills, property inventories, guardianship papers and other documents that lie scattered throughout England. Now, by using this work, social historians and genealogists can obtain the exact rolls of microfilm they need.
