The profusion of medieval churches in Norfolk provides not only examples of beautiful church architecture, but also records life in their communities and offers an insight into the history of medieval England. The third revised and enlarged edition of The Guide to Norfolk Churches contains an encyclopaedic glossary and a detailed index, which contrbute to the comprehensive survey provided by this guide. This indespensible guide to the 'living' medieval churches of Norfolk helps the visitor to understand both the general features of churches and the unique aspects of those in different areas. The guide is generously illustrated with photographs, line drawings and a detailed map to aid in locating each church within the county. The expanded reference section is designed to answer a host of questions which may tease the church visitor. For example, what symbols are used to represent particular saints? Why do so many Norfolk churches stand isolated from their villages? And why does thepagan Green Man find a place in our Christian churches? This book provides the answers to these and other questions. Written by enthusiasts for both the churches and the county in which they stand, the great appeal of this guide is that, once thecode of church architecture has been broken and the language learned, every church, be it ever so humble, is shown to be unique, with its own story to offer. This guide provides the key. In this, his revised guide to Norfolk churches, Mr Mortlock has provided us with a fascinating and illuminating description of each and every one he has visited. Armed with this guide the visitor cannot fail to enjoy exploring our lovely churches and having done so, it is my earnest hope that he or she willbe inspired to lend their support to these marvellous symbols of our heritage.

A guide to the unsung heritage of Britain; contributions by high profile Lefties such as PAUL ROUTLEDGE; an introduction by MICHAEL FOOT; 12 maps and 50 black and white illustrations by MARTIN ROWSON. The Lefties' Guide aims to celebrate Leftie history through location. Some areas are richer than others, but no corner of Britain lacks a site that has a reminder of the development of British liberties, rights and a better life. Organised by region, with each contributor providing an overview of that area's particular significance for the history of the Left, the Guide proposes to list 500 sites which are as much part of the British heritage as those cathedrals, stately homes and battlefields that have usually been part only of the history of an elite, and often a conservative elite. Reminders come in unexpected corners. Beatrice and Sidney Webb and Ernest Bevin are buried in Westminster Cathedral. But John Smith is buried in the kirkyard of Iona Cathedral. Eton College produced George Orwell, Labour 1945 Chancellor of the Exchequer Hugh Dalton and Tam Dalyell. The Lefties' Guide raises questions. disproportionate number of Lefties, others hardly any.

Depuis que le programme de commémoration historique a été inauguré par le gouvernement de l'Ontario en 1956, plus de 1 000 plaques ont été érigées d'un bout à l'autre de la province. La variété des sujets commémorés est étonnante, qu'il s'agisse de ruées vers les mines du nord de l'Ontario ou de l'invention de la vis à tête creuse ... de Harold Innis ou de Stephen Leacock ... de l'épidemie de typhus de 1847 ou de la découverte de l'insuline. La culture populaire est également bien représentée: "Beautiful Joe" commémore un roman célêbre dans le monde entier racontant l'histoire d'un chien ; "When You and I Were Young, Maggie" chante une ballade romantique très en vogue ; "Jumbo" marque l'emplacement où est mort un éléphant de cirque très aimé. L'histoire de l'Ontario, tout comme sa géographie et ses habitants, est vaste et variée. Ce guide peut donc être utile, que l'on circule sur l'autoroute, se promène a la campagne ou flâne dans son propre quartier. Il reste encore tant à découvrir.
