Book Description
Four hundred years ago, a small band of ordinary men and women set out on an epic journey from Britain to New England facing stormy seas, near starvation and death. What drove them to undertake this hazardous journey and endure such hardships? In this book, John Brown demonstrates that it was principally their desire for freedom to worship God according to their consciences. Their journey began long before the Mayflower set sail, and the author charts the persecution they had endured in Britain, their settling in Holland for a period, and all the events leading to their sailing in 1620, first from Southampton where they had gathered and then finally from Plymouth. The initial hardships, cold and many deaths experienced through the first winter in their new home only deepened their resolve to continue in dependence on God. Continuing difficulties gradually yielded to success and the addition of further emigrants to strengthen them and establish other colonies. This book covers events up to the uniting of these colonies in 1643. John Brown (1830-1922) was minister of the Bunyan Meeting in Bedford and is well known for his historical works.

Book Description
This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 licence. This book is the first academic study of the post-mortem practice of gibbeting (‘hanging in chains’), since the nineteenth century. Gibbeting involved placing the executed body of a malefactor in an iron cage and suspending it from a tall post. A body might remain in the gibbet for many decades, while it gradually fell to pieces. Hanging in chains was a very different sort of post-mortem punishment from anatomical dissection, although the two were equal alternatives in the eyes of the law. Where dissection obliterated and de-individualised the body, hanging in chains made it monumental and rooted it in the landscape, adding to personal notoriety. Focusing particularly on the period 1752-1832, this book provides a summary of the historical evidence, the factual history of gibbetting which explores the locations of gibbets, the material technologies involved in hanging in chains, and the actual process from erection to eventual collapse. It also considers the meanings, effects and legacy of this gruesome practice.
