On the Extent and Aims of a National Museum of Natural

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Owen, Richard, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, A significant limitation on the development of zoology, botany and palaeontology in the mid-nineteenth century was the absence of a centralised collection of specimens. Appointed superintendent of the British Museum's natural history departments in , the distinguished biologist Richard Owen () quickly realised the need to make various scattered samples more readily available for study, and began campaigning for a new, national museum with unprecedented space and resources. This book is the text of one of his speeches to the Royal Institution, given in and first published in . He argues against the usual practice of exhibiting only one type form for each genus, provides possible floor plans, and presents case studies across the zoological field which show the limitations of the then current system. He also stresses a new idea, that such a museum should aim not only to help scientists, but to educate the general public.

Evacuees of the Second World War

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brown, Mike, PUBLISHER: Shire Publications, During the last days of peace in nearly two million people, most of them children, were evacuated from British cities, towns and ports to the countryside, or across the Atlantic to the USA and Canada. Whole schools were evacuated together and found themselves billeted in large country houses. Others were sent off individually or in small groups to whoever had space to put them up. It was a time of great upheaval and the transition from city life to countryside often proved extremely stressful. This is a concise history of British evacuation during the Second World War, including the unimaginable upheaval suffered by the inhabitants of the Channel Islands and Gibraltar, who were evacuated to mainland Britain. Beginning with the uncertainty of the phoney war and the making of plans, this highly illustrated book looks at the experience of evacuation up to the homecomings of and the aftermath of evacuation.
