Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by William Quiller Orchardson, William Powell Frith and John Everett Millais. Lancashire battlefields identified and walked - the Roman camps, the Saxon fights, the civil war skirmishes - with the local names and traditions attached to each. Hardwick worked from the ground and the parish registers. This edition is bound with a gallery of 60 plates after Constable, Turner, Cotman and Millais, and includes two illustrations restored and coloured, plus a preface, appendix and index.
