Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or creased with very slight sunning to rear. 346pp. This study looks at the 'dark ages' and gives us an intimate view of everyday life in medieval England, suggesting that the way that 14th and 15th century peasants coped with their problems was not as different as we would expect from our 20th century solutions.

About The Book : Egypt Illustrated with Pen and Pencil is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1891. We see, even now, the multiplication of schools, colleges, churches, and other features of Christian civilization, molded by Occidental ideas, yet adapted to Oriental conditions. In journeying forty-five hundred miles from place to place in India, the past year, the writer has been impressed by the intellectual ferment found, by the advances in science and by the urgency and promise of the missionary enterprise. That 8000 entries are yearly made in the official catalogue of vernacular and English works written mainly by Hindus, and on religion more than on any theme, is a notable evidence of that ferment. A pile of missionary reports examined, and personal inspection of work doing in schools and churches, satisfy me that Buddhist theosophy will never tear Christianity in tatters. About The Author : Rev. William Urwick (1826-1905), Born at Sligo on 8 March 1826, he was second son of William Urwick the elder (1791–1868), nonconformist divine, and his wife Sarah (1791–1852), daughter of Thomas Cooke of Shrewsbury. His early education was under his father. He graduated at Trinity College, Dublin, Bachelor of Arts in 1848, Master of Arts From Dublin he went on to the Lancashire Independent College, Manchester, where he studied (1848-1851) under Robert Vaughan and Samuel Davidson. In 1851 on 19 June 1851 Urwick was ordained minister at Hatherlow, Cheshire, where he remained for twenty-three years, as pastor, and district secretary (later, president) of the Cheshire Congregational Union. Moving to London, he filled (1874-1877) the chair of Hebrew and Old Testament exegesis at New College, London. Still living in London, he became in 1880 minister of Spicer Street chapel in Saint Albans, where he rebuilt the Sunday schools, improved the church premises, and undertook temperance and other social work, resigning in 1895. Urwick married on 1 June 1859 Sophia (1832–1897), daughter of Thomas Hunter of Manchester.
