It did reasonably well in terms of reviews. This book is on a grander scale altogether, and I was conscious when I started it of a major disadvantage: whereas by the time I started the book on the Sherlock Holmes stories I was familiar with all of them – I had been a Sherlock Holmes enthusiast for decades – I am not acquainted at more than layman’s level, if that, with the authors who feature in this book, the scope of which extends across eight centuries. Counterbalancing this were two factors: ready availability of the works I planned to cover by electronic means, and an interest in the history of fuels and energy which, even before the Sherlock Holmes tome, led to a few publications by way of articles and commentaries. Anyway I decided to have a go and this book is the result. Numerous times when preparing the book I have noted an account of matters relevant to fuels and combustion which had clearly been closely observed centuries ago which can now be interpreted on the basis of modern ideas. This has perhaps been my greatest satisfaction in the writing of the book and might I hope be an appealing feature to potential readers. Inevitably there are some authors who feature centrally in this book, including William Shakespeare himself. There are several others of whom I had never heard before I started the book, and references to their work are not as extensive. I see this as inevitable, and representative of the contributions of the respective authors who, as noted, range enormously in period. The electronic sources of the books referred to sometimes, in the case of the earlier works drawn on, differed from the originals through modernisation of the English. I did not see that as important for the purpose of this book: if for example fire is spelt ‘fyre’ in the original that does not make my work as an exegete more difficult (quite the opposite!) or, more importantly, the inferences less sound. This is especially so of the earlier works covered, notably those of Chaucer, where the ‘interlinear’ versions of his work where accessible have been of great help. ‘Industrialisation’ is usually considered to have begun in about 1760, although it is not as clear-cut as that. One point which emerges in this book is that ingenuity was applied to operations in times long before movement of the population to centres of manufacturing. Even so, consistently with the usual definition no author features in this book who was born later than the 1770s. (It is to the author’s regret that this upper limit of date of birth precludes inclusion of Shelley, who was born in 1792, and of Byron, who was born in 1788.) The matter concerning the ‘timeline’ applies especially to the issue of coal production and utilisation where any historical demarcation between pre- and post-industrial is very indistinct.

Willow Wood cares for the people of Tameside and Glossop who are living with a life-limiting diagnosis, and provides palliative and end-of-life care. With annual running costs of £2.8million (£7,650 every single day) and funding of less than 21% of that figure, we rely heavily on the generosity of our community. However, with our shops closed once again and most of the year's fundraising events cancelled, our income this year has dropped dramatically. We are hoping that this auction will bring in a substantial amount to enable us to continue our loving, specialised care for our patients and their families. The auction also includes lots from Julie Hesmondhalgh (Hayley Cropper) and the family of the late Roy Barraclough MBE (Alec Gilroy). We are so very grateful to them for their donations.
