< oe work has been compiled to assist the large number 
of persons—residents and visitors—who take interest 
in Castles, Abbeys, Churches, Battlefields, etc., but from 
- want of a proper historical basis, fail as a rule to understand 
the allusions and technicalities in the ordinary guide bocts. 
It will also help intelligent boys and girls who desire to study 
the history of their County, on the lines advocated by the. 
_ Board of Education. The book is the only one of areason- — | 
able size which deals at all adequately with the history of 
Yorkshire as a whole. Many of the -illustrations have 
been reproduced from photographs by Mr. Godfrey Bingley, Ie 
Mr. A. C. Parry and Mr. R. Stockdale. To several chapters, | 
notes are appended to guide readers who might wish to 
_ extend their studies, and the value of the book is further | 
enhanced by the provision of a very exhaustive Index of 
names and places.
