Book Description
This is the third of a series of four books detailing the history of Nottingham. The previous three are The Nottingham Date Book 850 - 1845. Thoroton's, 1797. and John Blacknere's of 1815. This book contains many historic facts about Nottingham. The town began in the 6th century as a small settlement called Snottaingaham. Nottingham was originally a fortified settlement or burgh. The town had a ditch around it and an earth rampart with a wooden palisade on top. In 920 the English king recaptured Nottingham and he built a bridge across the Trent. Nottingham was famous for its Lace during the industrial revolution. Today it is the City of Nottingham.

Book Description
Excerpt from The History of Nottingham, Embracing Its Antiquities, Trade, and Manufactures, From the Earliest Authentic Records, to the Present Period In history, as in the science of astronomy, there 15 a certain space, beyond which, the native and artificial powers of man, never will enable him to penetrate. The virtuoso, who delights to wander in the fogs of his own raising, may grope, if be please, in the nebulous regions of history; but until it be proved that some good is likely to result to mankind from his labours, I shall not attempt to follow him into his darksome retreat. For what matters it to us whether the ancient Druids dwelt 111 rpcky caves, 01; in huts of a conic form or whether they transmitted their legends from father to son by oral or written means which, to the world are now no more, except what are pretended to be preserved by modern dreamers, to feed the folly, and waft the flame of the readers of romance, a Species of composition which tends so much to dissipate the morals of the fair part of the creation, that the Almighty wisely created to solace the other sex through the thorny path of life but who, for want of due attention being paid to their education, and a proper cultivation of their morals, when nature begins to bloom, too often implant the thorn, instead of the rose, in the breast of the partners of their bed.

Book Description
Excerpt from History and Antiquities of Nottingham, Vol. 1 It is not an affected humility, but proceeds from the sincere and deep feeling of my heart, that I acknowledge with gratitude the generous kindness of the subscribers who have enabled me to commence, and carry on to completion, the present work. To their honour I must bear testimony, that the patronage promised before the first sheet was put to press, has been steadily and cheerfully continued to the end. Perhaps a more remarkable example of public candour was never witnessed, than has been shown in the ready reception which this book has met with; for notwithstanding its many imperfections, which I beg explicitly to acknowledge, the number of patrons has gone on so fast increasing, that every disposable copy of the entire edition was sold long before the latter numbers were printed or compiled! Before adverting to the distinguishing characteristics of this work, it is due to their talents and industry, that a grateful acknowledgment should be made of the labours of those distinguished men, by whom I have been preceded, and to whom I am so much indebted. John Rouse, a monk of Warwick, was the first to write a "History of Nottingham," about the year 1500, Leland refers to it, p. 7; it is not now extant, and probably it might have perished in the general destruction of literature that unhappily distinguished the overthrow of the papal authority in England, and the establishment of the Anglican hierarchy in the reign of Henry VIII.
