Tradition and Innovation in English Retailing, 1700 to 1850: Narratives of Consumption (History of Retailing and Consumption)

Three decades of research into retailing in England from the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries has established a seemingly clear narrative: fixed shops were widespread from an early date; 'modern' methods of retailing were common from at least the early eighteenth century; shopping was a skilled activity throughout the period; and consumers were increasingly part of - and aware of being part of - a polite and fashionable culture. All of this is true, but is it the only narrative? Research has shown that markets were still important well into the nineteenth century and small scale producer-retailers co-existed with modern warehouses. Many shops were not smart. The development of modern retailing therefore was a fractured and fragmented process. This book presents a reassessment of the standard view by challenging the usefulness of concepts like 'traditional' and 'modern', examining consumption and retailing as inextricably linked aspects of a single process, and by using the idea of narrative to discuss the roles and perceptions of the various actors in this process - such as retailers, shoppers/consumers, local authorities and commentators. The book is therefore structured around some of these competing narratives in order to provide a richer and more varied picture of consumption and retailing in provincial England.

God seeks real relationship. He is not a religion, He is not an idol... He is love. As Christians, we need to learn how to hear and recognize His voice. The Lord can do amazing, awesome things.. if we would just step out and listen. Listening is not easy. It's normal to feel crazy at times, but it is so worth it. Just as in demonstrated in the book of 1 Samuel, we need to be instructed how to recognize God's voice. Sometimes this instruction is from the Holy Spirit himself, however others of us need someone to come beside us and show us that the voice we have experienced all along may be the God of the universe communicate in to us. This can be through pictures, dreams, nature, songs and sometimes a voice. I am not sure that our traditional church structure does a good job at this. Revelation is given in our contemporary model through Pastors, daily devotions and even the Bible, however some of the greatest messages to us come from the Lord himself. This interaction is biblical, and not reserved for the religious elite or the trained. My book is a humble attempt to share my experiences of listening to the Lord over a few years, hoping to ignite or connect something inside of the reader. For those that already have a mature relationship with the spirit of the Lord, this book will seem basic and even uneventful. But for the countless people I interact with daily, this is revolutionary. This book is for the ones that are too embarrassed to ask their pastor, super faithful friends or anyone if God really talks. My argument is that God 'talks' to us ALL. We just don't always recognize Him

Isles of the West describes a three-month voyage made in the summer of 1996 around the Hebrides. The author's aim was to explore the major issues peculiar to the islands as the century dawns. How does land reform, for example, look from the point of view of the islanders? Does nature conservation actually help the environment? Is the commercial promotion of 'heritage' a blessing or a curse? Interwoven with the beauty of the islands and the seductive feeling of freedom which comes from making long voyages in small boats is the nagging worry that alien forces, both Scottish and European, sentimental and mercenary, are distorting the indigenous society by imposing outside ideas on communities which are valued in part because they are so free of external pressures. Who are these bodies, both public and private, that want to save the islands from the islanders? Ian Mitchell's controversial book examines these conflicts and describes how pleasant it can be to worry about the future while lolling on the sun-drenched deck of a gently moving sailing boat.
