Excerpt from The Annals of Kendal, 1861: Being a Historical and Descriptive Account of Kendal and the Neighbourhood, With Biographical Sketches of Many Eminent Personages Connected With the Town It is improbable, if not impossible, that a work like the present, comprehending treatises on so many different sub jects, should be interesting to all; or should be altogether interesting even to any one reader. Such multiform collections must' be perused with diflerent feelings, tastes, and sentiments. But I hope that my readers will be candid enough to reflect, that those parts which may seem very unimportant to them, may, perhaps, be the only points of interest to others. Again, I would solicit some lenity, from the consideration that, however easy it may be for one person to discover faults or omissions in what relates to his own studies, it is not so easy for the ordinary faculties of one person to apprehend and illustrate, with accuracy, so many different subjects. This consideration, and the fact that I could only apply myself to the performance during those hours which are usually devoted to relaxation and rest, may, I hope, be accepted as an apology for the imperfections with which the work may be chargeable.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1861 edition. Excerpt: ... tinguished as muoh for the wisdom he displayed in managing and propitiating the people he conquered, as for his skill in battle. "Having sufficiently alarmed them (says Tacitus), his next course was to allure them with the sweetness of peace, and he publicly assisted tbem to build temples, and places of assembling." Hence, it is most natural to suppose, that the founder of the station would seek to satisfy the feelings and veneration--not to say the religious prejudices--of the Britons, by adopting the name of their topical deity, who was held by them in 6uch high repute, and so applying it to the station. He had less motive for consulting the Roman than the British vocabulary. His own legionaries were at his beck and call, willing and obedient, whilst, in all probability, at the time the station was named, the Brigantes were only partially vanquished, and those brought under subjection were ill reconciled to their master. If any one, dissatisfied with this theory and derivation, can suggest any other, consistent with the evidence of facts, or the rules of logic, I will cheerfully yield up Alauna. Till then, it must stand, and the station at Borough Bridge may, I hope, be henceforth regarded as being redeemed from the obloquy of an anonymous ruin. With respect to the military way north of Borough Bridge, I can now speak with some degree of certainty. Thanks to Thomas Bland, and John Bland, his nephew, two Westmorland " worthies" (born geniuses, is the least I can say of them in their presence), a clue has been discovered which unravels almost all difficulties. Mr. John Just spoke, from tradition, of the road proceeding " over Orton-Low-Moor to Brougham." But if, on the contrary, the military way can be traced from Borough Bridge to...

More than fifty specialists have contributed to this new edition of volume 2 of The Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. The design of the original work has established itself so firmly as a workable solution to the immense problems of analysis, articulation and coordination that it has been retained in all its essentials for the new edition. The task of the new contributors has been to revise and integrate the lists of 1940 and 1957, to add materials of the following decade, to correct and refine the bibliographical details already available, and to re-shape the whole according to a new series of conventions devised to give greater clarity and consistency to the entries.
