Since the 1700s, British periodicals devoted to field sports have been reporting developments in techniques, trends, legislation, conservation, and more. They therefore provide a detailed examination of the country’s rich and broad history of hunting, fishing, foxhunting, and related shooting sports. British Sporting Periodicals: An Annotated Bibliography is the first comprehensive listing of all the periodicals on field sports produced in Great Britain up to 1950. Each title is described in detail, including publisher, place of publication, general content, format, frequency of issue, and publishing history. The book also includes many wonderful images of magazine covers and front pages, diagrams that trace various name changes and mergers, and a detailed timeline. Exhaustively researched and carefully compiled, British Sporting Periodicals is a valuable reference tool for collectors, historians, and researchers of field sports.

Sport and the Physical Emancipation of English Women
Author : Kathleen E. McCrone
Publisher : Taylor & Francis
Page : 290 pages
File Size : 50,12 MB
Release : 2024-11-01
Category : History
ISBN : 1040279562
Book Description
First published in 1988. This study can be situated within the history of women, women’s education, women’s rights, sport, leisure and recreation. Its aim is not to establish or submit to review what is known or thought to be known about the Victorian world-view and woman’s place within it, but rather to investigate reactions against this view and the emergence of a counter-view through sport and exercise. An attempt is made to rescue the English sportswoman from the obscuring mists of the past, to discuss her as a transitional figure between opposing views of womanhood and to place her within the context of the general movement for the emancipation of women as an important effect and cause — without necessarily assuming what women’s status in sport and in society should have been.

Book Description
Association football, as it developed rapidly in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, both reflected British society and helped to reshape it. In this newly released edition of Tony Mason’s essential account of the game’s rise, focusing on issues such as the amateur–professional divide, social class and mass spectatorship are seen as fundamental to our understanding of what is now a global phenomenon. Dilwyn Porter supplements this classic text with a brand new introduction.
