Excerpt from The History of Plymouth: From the Earliest Period to the Present Time Emboldened by the kind reception accorded to my History of Devonport, I undertook and have now completed a record of the parent community. The task was one that ought never to have been left to the present generation. Being left, I am glad that circumstances threw it into my hands. My constant object has been to produce a work attractive in form, readable in style, and moderate in price, which yet should omit no incident of import ance, and which should, by judicious selection, syste matic arrangement, and scrupulous accuracy, commend itself to the antiquary and historian, as well as to the general reader. How far I have succeeded is not for me to say. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
