Bradbury Heritage
This book will be of interest not only to Bradburys, but to all who have a connection with a Bradbury family member, through ancestry or otherwise, or who have an interest in general historic events, from the early Middle Ages to the present day. The publication quotes new and intriguing evidence of the Viking origins of some Bradbury family members, and displays relatively unknown seals and charters of three generations of Bradburys living in the 12th and 13th centuries. In addition to over 100 biographies of notable family members (see back cover) are entries for a host of Bradbury industries, ranging from a maple syrup producer to a piano manufacturer, and from a New Zealand stud farm to a factory making sewing machines and motor-cycles. Bradbury place and other names, including those of islands and towns, a museum and a mountain, complete this interesting collection of entries. Over twenty chapters include Arts, Science & Engineering, Medieval Clerics, TV & Film, Justice and Sport: comprehensively cross-referenced and beautifully illustrated, they provide a wonderful treasure-trove and keepsake about worldwide Bradbury Heritage.

Sport, Militarism and the Great War
The Great War has been largely ignored by historians of sport. However sport was an integral part of cultural conditioning into both physiological and psychological military efficiency in the decades leading up to it. It is time to acknowledge that the Great War also had an influence on sport in post-war European culture. Both are neglected topics. Sport, Militarism and the Great War deals with four significant aspects of the relationship between sport and war before, during and immediately after the 1914-1918 conflict. First, it explores the creation and consolidation of the cult of martial heroism and chivalric self-sacrifice in the pre-war era. Second, it examines the consequences of the ...
