Photography first went to India in the early 1840s and, ever since, photographers have set about recording this fascinating and exotic country. This book starts a few years before the Indian mutiny of 1857 and brings us up to the granting of Independence in 1947.

In his introduction, John Fabb explains the changing structure of Indian society which this book records. The photographs in the early part of the book concentrate on the native rulers, many of them fabulously wealthy. Then we are shown the British in India, for the most part the story of the army presence after the mutiny. Their leisure moments are portrayed too, though, enjoying tiffin (a light meal) on the lawn in 1870, a meet of the horse and hounds before riding off to hunt jackal in 1890, or playing cricket in 1864 at Kohat, on the north-west frontier. After the title of Empress of India was added to that of Queen of England in 1877, royal visits became a regular feature, which included, if possible, that most regal of activities - a tiger shoot.

From native rulers to British rulers, many interesting aspects of Indian life are covered, and it is fitting that some of the last photographs in the book feature Mahatma Gandhi, a man who was the representative more than any other of the move to dismantle the British Empire in India.

Throughout, there are detailed captions that guide the reader over these 114 photographs of the last 100 years of this part of the Empire, and even those familiar with this period of Indian history will here find much that is new and intriguing.

The jacket illustration shows the cover o% the issue o(The Sphere magazine celebrating the recent crowning. in Decem her 1910. of King George Vand Queen Mary as Emperor and Empress of India. (Illustrated London News Picture Library)

"GALWAY: A MEDICO SOCIAL HISTORY" tells the story of health care in Galway City and County since earliest times. Drawing on comprehensive research and knowledge, Dr. Murray brings us from the first primitive cures of Pre-Christian Ireland to the miraculous breakthroughs in modern medical research.

The book describes with some detail the famines of the 18th and 19th centuries and the efforts of the Municipal authorities to deal with the sick, the indigent and the
dying. The building of the first hospitals, the foundation of
Queen's University and its Medical School, the appointment of the first nurses are all described in full.

Profusely illustrated with over sixty photographs, the book provides a deep insight into those men and women whose courage and persistence, working in extremely primitive and
dangerous conditions, allowed us to live fuller and healthier lives.

'William Rollinson does for Lakeland words and traditions what Wainwright did for its walks and climbs.' Melvyn Bragg

The Cumbrian Dictionary is the first comprehensive guide to the county's dialect, tradition and folklore. It comprises: dialect words and expressions; traditions and customs; and names from history and legend. The entries themselves cover topics such as working life, food and domestic items, sport and recreation, children's games, local rhymes and sayings, calendar customs and topographical features. They include derivations, explanations and cross-references; and quoted examples give the reader the precise meaning and flavour of the word or phrase, often with traditional humour for good measure. Specially-commissioned drawings complement the text perfectly.

Although it serves as a well-researched reference work, with its lively yet authoritative text, the Dictionary is also a delight to browse through. All in all, with over 2,000 entries and 140 illustrations, the Cumbrian Dictionary is the essential book on Cumbrian phrase and fable.
'Succinct, authentic, well-illustrated ... good for a browse and assured of a place on that part of the bookshelf reserved for standard works of reference about our Cumbrian way of life.'
W R Mitchell MBE, former editor of Cumbria

'Firmly rooted in encyclopaedic knowledge but skilfully tailored to meet the needs and interests of the general reader. A five-star companion for aficionados of all things truly Cumbrian.'
George Bott, Keswick Reminder

'Whea else but Bill Rollinson cud hey put tagither seck a grand new beeuk? T' amoont o' stuff in seck a handy-sized beeuk is a real capper!'

Few people go to East and Central Africa purely for pleasure. The winter before last Mr Evelyn Waugh made a brief but leisurely tour in Kenya, Tanganyika, and Rhodesia and, eschewing all political problems, found many amusements lacking in the recognized holiday resorts. He has a sharp eye for oddity, both in history and in contemporary manners. His travel diary makes a very pleasant bedside book (which should induce sleep in all but the most stubborn insomniacs).
