A History Of Devon
Anbieter: Crappy Old Books, Barry, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: Good. Welcome, dear reader, to the delightful rabbit hole known as "A History Of Devon" by Robin Stanes, an esteemed chronicler of all things Devonshire. Published in 1986 by the venerable Phillimore, this tome stands as a testament to the notion that even the most unassuming counties deserve their moment in the literary spotlight?or at least a decent shelf at your local second-hand bookshop. Now, one might wonder why on earth anyone would write a history of a county. After all, isn?t history usually reserved for grand events, battles, and the occasional monarch toppling? Yet here we have Devon, a county known for its cream teas and picturesque coastlines, asking you to reconsider what constitutes historical significance. Perhaps the riveting tale of the county?s annual turnip-rolling competition could make an appearance?who are we to judge? In this illustrious work, expect to find the following riveting nuggets of knowledge that may or may not include: The revolutionary concept of ?Devonshire cream? and its role in altering the course of tea-time history. A deep dive into the infamous "Devonshire dialect"?a language so peculiar it could confuse even the most seasoned linguist. Profiles of notable figures, assuming, of course, they are from Devon and haven?t mysteriously vanished into the ether. A detailed account of the county?s numerous churches, which, judging by their architectural styles, seem to have been designed by a committee of squirrels on caffeine. A historical examination of the county?s apples?yes, that?s right, the very apples that have catapulted Devon into the annals of cider-making glory. But let?s not get too ahead of ourselves. You may be asking, ?What was Robin Stanes thinking when he penned this enthralling chronicle of Devon?? Perhaps he was daydreaming in a thatched cottage, stirring a pot of bubbling stew, convinced that the world needed another reference point to the quirks of this West Country enclave. Or maybe he was simply trying to get out of doing his laundry. Only Stanes knows for sure. This book is not just for the history buff but also for those who enjoy a healthy dose of irony and whimsy. Expect an abundance of footnotes for references that may or may not lead you down a rabbit hole of historical rabbit holes, where you can get lost in the minutiae of local political squabbles over which village had the best sheep. It?s all terribly riveting if you squint hard enough. Condition: This tome is gently used, which means it has been lovingly flipped through by previous owners who may have pondered life?s great questions while sipping a cuppa, possibly spilling some tea on the pages. There are a few creases and perhaps a rogue biscuit crumb or two embedded within its pages, giving it that delightful ?I?ve been around the block? charm. Perfect for those who appreciate a book that has a story of its own?one that is likely to involve questionable choices in book-snacking. So if you find yourself longing for a quirky exploration of Devon?s peculiar past, or if you simply want to impress your friends with your obscure knowledge of tea-time history, look no further than Robin Stanes? "A History Of Devon." You?ll find it scruffy yet lovable, much like the county itself. Available for your perusal from Crappy Old Books, where we firmly believe that every book has a history worth telling?even if it?s just about Devon?s finest turnips. THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 2733
