The Family of the Barrett
Author: Jeannette Marks
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9781396590603
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 786
Book Description
Excerpt from The Family of the Barrett: A Colonial Romance Habitats have been reconstructed. The exact number of leaves or the precise number of blades of grass may not be correct. But the species of tree and the kind of grass are. The painting in of a habitat need not mean verisimilitude. If at times in the restoration of the Barrett and Browning backgrounds, the picture becomes somewhat composite, that fact does not invalidate the accuracy of the picture as a whole. No doubt the mistake of placing some human beings in too close association has been made, for their temperaments or the circumstances of their hour may have kept them apart. But, whatever their separation, the essential fact remains: they shared the same habitat. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Spirit of St. Andrews
Author: Alister Mackenzie
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 076790169X
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
Alister MacKenzie was one of golf's greatest architects. He designed his courses so that players of all skill levels could enjoy the game while still creating fantastic challenges for the most experienced players. Several of MacKenzie's courses, such as Augusta National, Cypress Point, and Pasatiempo, remain in the top 100 today. In his "lost" 1933 manuscript, published for the first time in 1995 and now finally available in paperback, MacKenzie leads you through the evolution of golf--from St. Andrews to the modern-day golf course--and shares his insight on great golf holes, the swing, technology and equipment, putting tips, the USGA, the Royal & Ancient, and more. With fascinating stories about Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen, Gene Sarazen, and many others, The Spirit of St. Andrews gives valuable lessons for all golfers as well as an intimate portrait of Alister MacKenzie, a true legend of the game.

Colonial England, 1066-1215
Author: J. C. Holt
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1852851406
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 362
Book Description
The process of colonisation that followed the Norman Conquest defined much of the history of England over the next 150 years, structurally altering the distribution of land and power in society. This theme is defined in a previously unpublished lecture on Colonial England, given in 1994, but it runs through all the sixteen essays in this collection. J.C. Holt's subjects include Domesday Book, the establishment of knight-service, aristocratic structures and nomenclature, the relation of family to property, security of title and inheritance, among other matters. He comments on the work of Maitland, Round and Stenton and ends with studies of the treaty of Winchester (1153), the rasus regis, and Magna Carta.
