Book Description
Excerpt from European Historical Collections: Comprising England, Scotland, With Holland, Belgium, and Part of France The plan used in the compilation of this work is similar to that of several State works given to the public by the author of this publication, which have been well received. The countries and places described are those with whom we, as a people in our business relations, are closely associated. We have almost a daily communication with them, particularly with Great Britain, with whom we are assimilated in our language, laws, manners and customs. To a large portion of the inhabitants of this country it is the home of our ancestors, and, as such, we feel an interest in their history, and in the places where they lived. We claim, in common with our brethren across the Atlantic, our full proportion of whatever is ennobling in the history of the past Their heroes, statesmen, philosophers and geniuses are ours also. The Shakespeares, the Miltons, and Bunyans, the Cromwells, and Hampdens, and the Covenanters of Scotland, are our relatives. We feel a similar interest in viewing the spot on which they were born, the habitations they occupied, and the relics they left behind. The materials from which this work is derived, are drawn from a great variety of sources. Access has been had to valuable historical works, to examine which, it is necessary to cross the Atlantic. The countries, and the most prominent places described in this volume, have been personally visited; and much of the matter for this work was found in the local histories published in the places described. In the biographical department, much has been extracted from "Lempriere's Biographical Dictionary." The numerous engravings interspersed through the work were made from authentic drawings, part of which were taken on the spot by the author of this work. While conscious of using every precaution generally adopted in preparing similar works, the compiler does not claim an exemption from the imperfections always attendant on publications where so many names, dates, figures, &c., are introduced. A certain writer defines History as merely "an approximation towards truth." Though this humiliating statement cannot be fully allowed, yet, (such is the imperfection of every thing human, ) it must be acknowledged to have some foundation in truth. While it has been the aim of the author to furnish a work interesting to all classes of readers, it has also been his aim that whatever influence it might possess, should be on the side of the great interests of religion and morality. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. 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. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in our edition. We do, however, repair the vast majority of imperfections successfully; any imperfections that remain are intentionally left to preserve the state of such historical works.
