The town of Kearsley, between Bolton and Manchester, has a rich and fascinating history. With around 500 pictures and 70,000 words this book attempts to convey how it has grown from a sparsely populated area comprising of no more than a few dozen farms and cottages to the busy and industrious town of today.
Early township records show many interesting details, such as land ownership and how relief was administered to the poor and needy, but also how some unfortunate souls were removed to the dreaded workhouse.
The earliest known written record of Kearsley is also shown which dates from around the year 1222, and special permission had to be granted for it to be photographed for reproduction in this book.
Kearsley and the surrounding area became a hotbed for manufacturing as the industrial revolution took hold, with many factories and mills springing up, particularly beside the overworked River Irwell. There are numerous pictures, maps and documents to illustrate how these developed then declined during the twentieth century as post war Britain could no longer compete in these traditional industries. The coal industry is described along with its dangers, and details of several local mining disasters are given. A large section is dedicated to the Unity Brook colliery disaster, which to this day remains as the single worst tragedy in the history of Kearsley. Unique pictures that were drawn by a local artist at the scene of the disaster during the rescue operation have been uncovered and feature in this compelling section as well as evidence from the inquests that followed.
There is a wealth of information on the schools, Churches, public houses, roads, bridges, tram-systems, railways, canals, farms and the former Kearsley Power Station. The neighbouring towns of Farnworth and Clifton are also largely featured, as is the district once referred to as Halshaw Moor, which took in parts of both Kearsley and Farnworth. Again, there are numerous rare and unique pictures, maps and documents to accompany all of these chapters and areas.

A work of extraordinary range and striking originality, The Gun, the Ship, and the Pen traces the global history of written constitutions from the 1750s to the twentieth century, modifying accepted narratives and uncovering the close connections between the making of constitutions and the making of war. In the process, Linda Colley both reappraises famous constitutions and recovers those that have been marginalized but were central to the rise of a modern world.
She brings to the fore neglected sites, such as Corsica, with its pioneering constitution of 1755, and tiny Pitcairn Island in the Pacific, the first place on the globe permanently to enfranchise women. She highlights the role of unexpected players, such as Catherine the Great of Russia, who was experimenting with constitutional techniques with her enlightened Nakaz decades before the Founding Fathers framed the American constitution. Written constitutions are usually examined in relation to individual states, but Colley focuses on how they crossed boundaries, spreading into six continents by 1918 and aiding the rise of empires as well as nations. She also illumines their place not simply in law and politics but also in wider cultural histories, and their intimate connections with print, literary creativity, and the rise of the novel.
Colley shows how--while advancing epic revolutions and enfranchising white males--constitutions frequently served over the long nineteenth century to marginalize indigenous people, exclude women and people of color, and expropriate land. Simultaneously, though, she investigates how these devices were adapted by peoples and activists outside the West seeking to resist European and American power. She describes how Tunisia generated the first modern Islamic constitution in 1861, quickly suppressed, but an influence still on the Arab Spring; how Africanus Horton of Sierra Leone--inspired by the American Civil War--devised plans for self-governing nations in West Africa; and how Japan's Meiji constitution of 1889 came to compete with Western constitutionalism as a model for Indian, Chinese, and Ottoman nationalists and reformers.
Vividly written and handsomely illustrated, The Gun, the Ship, and the Pen is an absorbing work that--with its pageant of formative wars, powerful leaders, visionary lawmakers and committed rebels--retells the story of constitutional government and the evolution of ideas of what it means to be modern.
