Barnsley Pals by Jon Cooksey Pdf

The true World War I story of one British town’s remarkable response to the message “Your Country Needs You.” The Pals battalions were a phenomenon of the Great War, never repeated since. Under Lord Derby’s scheme, and in response to Lord Kitchener’s famous call for a million volunteers, local communities raised (and initially often paid for) entire battalions for service on the Western Front. Their experience was all too frequently tragic, as men who had known each other all their lives, had worked, volunteered, and trained together, and had shipped to France together, encountered the first full fury of modern battle on the Somme in July 1916. Many of the Pals battalions would not long survive that first brutal baptism, but their spirit and fighting qualities have gone down in history. These were truly the cream of Britain’s young men, and every single one of them was a volunteer. This book tells their story. Includes photographs and illustrations

Grimsby Streets by Emma Lingard Pdf

A “fascinating” walk through the history of one English port town, told through the names of its streets—includes photos (Books Monthly). With a history that dates back to the days of the Vikings, Grimsby, on England’s eastern coast, has served as a hub for shipping companies and fishermen and a home to generations of citizens. Arranged alphabetically, Grimsby Streets is a journey through time, examining the meanings and origins of many of the town’s street names, from their association with the Danish settlers through to the Victorian era and the men who helped develop the town and build its surrounding docks. Names of the great and good who were forgotten until now are explored, as well as some of the many famous people who were born there, and where they lived. The book also covers numerous incidents that occurred on Grimsby's streets, providing colorful insight into the history of this once-famous fishing port and some of the many wonderful buildings that stood there. Included throughout are a selection of old photographs, some of which have never been published before, a reminder of what this town was like before change and demolition in the 1960s.
