Scenes of Rural Life in Hampshire Among the Manors of Bramshott

PREFACE: At the close of a long period of ministerial work in Bramshott, the author has gathered up some memories of the past which may perhaps interest the friends from whom he has to part, as also possibly some others of a wider circle, who may care for illustrations of varied phases of rural life in England. Evidences for what is written in the text are given in Appendices and Notes, but with a sparing hand, for often statements have been made after much study of family papers and of other local records, without the dry as dust details of references which might repel all but resolute readers with robust appetite for bristling facts.....Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
