Excerpt from Forty Years in a Moorland Parish: Reminiscences and Researches in Danby in ClevelandPersonal as such reminiscences as these last must be, the others are scarcely less so albeit in another sense. There might be no palpable companionship in all those hours and leagues of daily walking; but there was perpetually so distinct a personality in the matters which passed in succession through the mind, that the effect was rather one of conversation than of solitary re¿ection. Sixty miles from any collection of books worthy to be named a library, with no neighbours, clerical or otherwise, who could offer intellectual sympathy, the need for something to converse with in those long hours - half of them spent on the lonely moors - was constant. And some of the conversations thus held are recorded in the pages which follow.Some of the views put forward three-and-twenty years ago in the Cleveland Glossary, as well as previously elsewhere, have been contested or made light of, but seem to be generally, even if sometimes tacitly, admitted now. Others are advanced below which may quite possibly be questioned in their turn; but, as before, they are advanced only for what they are worth. Let the thoughtful reader decide.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
