EBROCHURE DESCRIPTION: |
|
The "Recollections of Old Liverpool," contained in the following pages, appeared originally the Liverpool Compass, their publication extending over a period of several months.
The book was first published in 1863 and gives a personal insight into the city of Liverpool .
Those who have recorded the green memories of an old man, as told while seated by his humble "ingle nook" have endeavoured to adhere to his own words and mode of narration-hence the somewhat rambling and discursive style of these "Recollections"-a style which does not, in the opinion of many, by any means detract from their general interest.
November, 1863.
I was born in Liverpool, on the 4th of June in 1769 or '70. I am consequently about ninety-three years old. My friends say I am a wonderful old man. I believe I am. I have always enjoyed such excellent health, that I do not know what the sensation is of a medical man putting his finger on my wrist. I have eaten and drunk in moderation, slept little, risen early, and kept a clear conscience before God and man. My memory is surprising. I am often astonished at myself in recalling to mind events, persons, and circumstances, that occurred so long ago as to be almost forgotten by everybody else:- and what follows is a delightful account of the city of Liverpool as remembered by the narrator over his lifetime, some ninety years old |
