Then there are novelists such as David Storey and Barry Hines, who wrote about working-class lives in the mining towns in the 1950s and 60s. And finally some favourite characters to enjoy, such as James Herriot and the Yorkshire Shepherdess.Yorkshire: A Literary Landscape is edited by David Stuart Davies.

The dialects of English still spoken in Yorkshire, known collectively as Broad Yorkshire, Tyke or Yorkie, are both colorful and instantly recognizable. This handy beginner’s guide to ‘how to speak Yorkshire’ will have you giving Sean Bean or Jodie Whittaker a run for their money in no time.First, you have to drop your Hs, from ‘has’ and ‘her’ for example – ‘as and ‘er. Then, the Ts need to go, from ‘that’ and ‘cat’ for example, to be replaced with a slight H sound, the so-called glottal stop – tha’ and ca’ – while ‘the’ becomes simply t’. A famous example (which no one ever actually says) is ‘t’in’t in’t tin, meaning ‘it isn’t in the tin’. In a similar way ‘with’ becomes ‘wi’. Accents may differ throughout the Dales, but Ts and Hs are dropped throughout Yorkshire.And don’t bother with the G in any -ing ending. Gs at the end of words count for nothin’. The ‘ay’ sound in a word, like ‘day’, becomes ‘ee’, as do some i sounds – ‘right’, for example, becomes ‘reet’. So, in Yorkshire, you might say, ‘I’m ‘avin’ a reet grand dee!’Never say ‘our’; you say ‘us’ – Wot’s f’r us tea, Mutha? ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Yorkshire has been a hotbed of motorsport since the early years of the last century. In this book, motorsport broadcaster and journalist Larry Carter presents a selection of memorable motorsport events, competitors, venues and personalities in the county from the 1920s onwards. The Sutton Bank Time Trials and the Harewood Hill Climb started in the early years of the last century and the latter is still going today. The 1938 Scott Trial was held on the Yorkshire Moors as war clouds gathered and in 1971, one of the most iconic RAC Rallies ever started at Harrogate. Yorkshire competitors include Formula One World Champion Mike Hawthorn, several generations of the Lampkin family, Wakefield stars Mick Grant and Denis Parkinson on two wheels, as well as Doncaster ace Tony Sugden and Leeds entrepreneur Chris Meek on four wheels. There is also the tragic Carter family linked to the Halifax and Bradford speedway teams. The lost tracks at Carnaby and Rufforth staged massive races into the 1980s, motocross at Hutton Conyers was regularly shown on TV and Oliver’s Mount in Scarborough welcomed a roll call of world champions for over half a century from the 1940s.Delving through the archives, Larry Carter has unearthed ...

The Yorkshire coast has been attracting holidaymakers for centuries. This book is the first to delve into the world of moneyed visitors to the county’s seaside resorts, showing what attracted such people and why places like Scarborough, Filey and others remained select resorts until the beginning of the twentieth century. Many visitors before 1900 came from the upper reaches of British society, whether aristocracy or commercial and industrial magnates. But some Yorkshire resorts also catered for an international clientele – the French royal family had visited Scarborough, the Grand Duke and Duchess of Hesse stayed at Filey, while the Maharajah of Cooch Behar took a suite at the Hotel Metropole in Whitby.Using original research based on letters, wills, diaries and journals, together with newspaper reports, this book takes an in-depth look at the wealth and lifestyles of high-class visitors to the Yorkshire coast and includes chapters on their houses, luxury hotels, leisure activities and the ways in which both men and women of means shaped the resorts they visited or to which they retired.Generously illustrated with photographs and plans, The Golden Age of Yorkshire Resorts 1800–1914 provides a long-overdue survey of how the wealthy of the past spent their time ...

They call Yorkshire God’s own country. This is because England’s biggest county is also England’s most epic and most historically exciting. It has everything: unimaginably beautiful countryside, derelict castles, cliff-hugging coastlines, brutally bleak moors, quirkily quaint villages, wondrously winding waterways and industrial monsters of cities. Many of the most interesting episodes in English history have happened here: the Wars of the Roses, the English Civil War, the birth of the industrial revolution, the rise of the Labour movement. But when people think of Yorkshire they also think of the unusual and the unsung: Bettys delightful tea rooms, cricket at Scarborough, the windswept steps of Whitby Abbey, the steam railway of the Railway Children, Mother Shipton’s Cave, and racing at Doncaster and York.Yorkshire has also given birth to some of the greatest and most talented figures in English history: Brian Clough, Harold Wilson, John Wycliffe, William Wilberforce, the Brontë Sisters, David Hockney and Barbara Hepworth.

From the imposing walls of Skipton Castle to the ruins of Whitby Abbey, the inhabitants of England’s largest county have evidently found both beauty and practicality in the use of stone for thousands of years.

Yorkshire''s standing stones, burial cairns and extensive earthworks are among Northern Europe''s best-preserved prehistoric relics.

In late 18th century Yorkshire a powerful gang of counterfeiters held the local community in its spell. In a remote valley near Halifax called Cragg Vale, gold coins of the realm were clipped and filed, then returned to circulation, while the extra metal collected was melted down to produce new counterfeit currency. The crime was punishable by death, and violence and vengeance, even murder, was meted out against those who got in their way. The Cragg Vale Coiners were highly organised, enlisting the help of many in the local community, and local authorities were powerless to stop them. The threat posed by the gang was debated in Parliament and the Government had to do something to prevent the Exchequer being defrauded of millions of pounds and the nationÂ’s currency being debased, so it was forced to despatch high-ranking officials of the Royal Mint in an attempt to bring the gang to justice and the ringleaders to the gibbet. The ensuing hunt for the gang members was bitter and the story of the outcome has become the stuff of legends.Steve Hartley has been researching the true story of the Cragg Vale Coiners for many years.

Many remarkable women have been born in, or have strong connections with Yorkshire. In Issy Shannon''s new book we hear about the most infamous - including witches, thieves, fraudsters and murders. Among many other are the calculating Queen Cartimandua, ruler of the Brigantes and arguably more powerful than her contemporary Boudicca, Mary Bateman, the Yorkshire witch, whose skin was flayed off, cut up and sold as good luck charms after her execution, mary Newall of the Cragg Vale Coiners Gang, who roasted alive an informant, and Elizabeth Broadingham, who was burned at the stake for murdering her husband in 1776. Issy Shannon is a natural storyteller, and her lively text is fully illustrated with a wide range of photographs and engravings - illustrating the criminals and their crimes, and the towns and villages of Yorkshire in days gone by.

The area is rich in history; many monuments, glorious cathedrals, magnificent houses, castles and some of the most beautiful ruins in England bear eloquent witness to the county''s often tumultuous past. In this work, the author shares his fascination and love of his native county.

Landscape architecture plays an important role in shaping the places in which we live and work. But what is it? Landscape architects are involved, amongst other things, in the layout of business parks, the reclamation of derelict industrial sites, the restoration of historic city parks, and the siting and design of major pieces of infrastructure such as motorways, dams, power stations, and flood defences, as well as the planning of parks and gardens. Taking a historical perspective, Ian Thompson looks at both the roots of landscape architecture and the people that established it. This Very Short Introduction explores some of the misconceptions about landscape architecture and considers the discipline''s origins in landscape gardening. Thompson takes a look at a number of areas, including the influence of Modernism, the difference between landscape design and landscape planning, and the way that planning legislation has driven the growth of the discipline.

In recent years David Hockney has returned to England to paint the landscape of his childhood. East Yorkshire''s stern hillscapes, craggy drystone walls and endless windswept moors make for a stimulating muse, and Hockney''s work captures the character of this scenery with expert precision.Although his passionate interest in new technologies has led Hockney to develop a virtuoso drawing technique on an iPad, he is still regularly accompanied by a trusty sketchbook. This invaluable tool allows him to work quickly, capturing the changing light and the fleeting effects of the weather. Executed in watercolour and ink, these panoramic scenes have the spatial complexity of finished paintings: the broad sweep of sky or road, the patchwork tapestry of land. Yet unlike a painting completed in the studio, far-removed from the landscape that inspired it, these sketches convey the immediacy of Hockney''s impressions. And as indicated by views down village streets and across kitchen tables, his rooted local knowledge and fondness for the area around the East Yorkshire Wolds always shines through. If you know the region, the location of these sketches is unmistakable. If you don''t, its features will come to life in these pages, animated by Hockney''s incomparable skill.
