Rydal (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Rydal<br><br>I could not help feeling that it was a duty I owed to her valued friendship that according to her wish I should do what was necessary to prepare it for the press. The task for many reasons has not been a very easy one but the result will I think be found to be a very full and in many directions an extremely interesting account Of the History not only Of Rydal but of all the neighbourhood and also of the whole county and in some respects Of the whole realm. The chapters on trade and husbandry and on domestic life and fashions in the seventeenth century will be found most interesting and the life and times of Sir Daniel Fleming are described with great fullness and much humour.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
