Publisher's Synopsis

Lancashire Sketches is a book written by Edwin Waugh and first published in 1869. The book is a collection of short stories and sketches that offer a glimpse into the people, places, and traditions of Lancashire, a historic county in North West England. Waugh, who was born in Lancashire, uses his personal experiences and observations to create vivid and colorful descriptions of the region's landscapes, dialects, and customs. The book covers a wide range of topics, from the everyday lives of working-class families to the legends and folklore of the area. Some of the stories are humorous, while others are poignant and reflective. Lancashire Sketches is a charming and entertaining read that provides a unique perspective on a fascinating part of England's history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
