""Change In The Village"" is a book written by George Bourne and published in 1912. The book is a detailed account of the changes that occurred in the village of Bourne's birthplace, which is located in the English countryside. Bourne describes the transformation of the village from a simple, agrarian community to a more modern and industrialized one. He discusses the impact of new technologies, such as the steam engine and the telephone, on the village and its people. Bourne also explores the social and economic changes that occurred, including the rise of a new middle class and the decline of traditional rural industries. Throughout the book, Bourne reflects on his own experiences growing up in the village and his observations of the changes taking place around him. ""Change In The Village"" provides a fascinating glimpse into the history of rural England during a time of significant transformation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Large Print Edition THE belief was long nearly universal, and is yet very general throughout the Christian world, that the Scriptures do, to some extent, justify human slavery, as practiced in this country. The object of the following chapters is to controvert this belief, and to prove that it is false and heretical, as well as dangerous and destructive to human happiness; that this belief is founded entirely on perversions of the true meaning of certain passages in the Scriptures, and is entirely contrary to the spirit of the divine volume, the letter of which condemns the practice with as much severity as it did that of any other crime. The following argument is presented for the calm and prayerful consideration of all Christians, both in the North and in the South.

Memoirs of a Surrey Labourer, first published in 1907, recounts in affectionate detail the twilight years of gardener Fred Bettesworth at the close of the nineteenth century and the opening of the twentieth. It is a tender and often tragic portrait of a man and a way of life long since disappeared, yet vividly preserved for us in fragments of everyday conversation and local dialect. Bettesworth emerges through George Bourne's journal entries as a truly extraordinary individual: a half-blind but almost indefatigable worker; an elderly veteran of the Crimean War; a devoted husband to a disabled wife; and a noble peasant whose humour, in spite of constant hardship, shines through. Memoirs is a book that George Orwell was 'always meaning to read', whose 'remarkable detail' faithfully depicts the burdens borne by a rural working man. George Bourne, the pen name of George Sturt (1863-1927), was born and grew up in Farnham, Surrey, where he ran a wheelwright's shop.
