Excerpt from Fields of Fame in England and ScotlandAs the dramatic spectacles of war, and of the movements of marching men, are thrilling to the onlooker, so it is not strange that the narratives of wars and battles, which appeal powerfq to the imagination, have a stronger human interest than the records of the peaceful pursuits and achieve ments of statesmen or of the common people. His tory would be dull reading without the deeds of valour and the glory thereof. It will not, then, be thought an entirely whimsical design of the present writer if he attempts to present in collective form brief narratives of the chief battles of England and Scotland, with occasional references to his personal visits to these Fields of Fame.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
