Beschreibung

The Little History of Lancashire covers the historic county which used to stretch from Coniston Water in the Lake District in the north to the River Mersey in the south. From the formation of the county's terrain in the Ice Age and its earliest occupation by the Celts, we enter history with the Roman occupation. The Normans arrived to form the county that played a major part in the turbulent period of the civil war. The Georgian and Victorian periods saw the Industrial Revolution in Lancashire shape the future of the country and beyond. Lancashire became the most important manufacturing and exporting centre in the land. But the rise of king cotton and its fall led to a traumatic outcome and the present day. All these themes are highlighted in an easy to read, concise and entertaining narrative which helps you to understand the historical importance of the county.
