This classic book is Frances Hodgson Burnett’s 1877 novel, “That Lass O' Lowrie's”. It is the story of a spirited heroine who was raised in grim, impoverished surroundings by a brutal, abusive father. She is forced to toil in the mines for long hours, often striving to protect those weaker than herself. That is, until she falls in love with a man belonging to a significantly higher social strata. A fantastic story of love and redemption, “That Lass O' Lowrie's” would make for a worthy addition to any collection, and is not to be missed by fans of Burnett’s work. Frances Eliza Hodgson Burnett (1849–1924) was an American-English writer and dramatist. Other notable works by this author include: “A Little Princess” (1905) and “The Secret Garden” (1911). Many classic books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
The third novel from Burnett's canon, €Haworth's is the tale of the residents in a small English manufacturing town, including a crazy inventor, a saintly elderly woman, a nasty self-made man and the illegitimate daughter of a once-wealthy woman.

The Cunetio and Normanby hoards are the two of the largest Roman coin hoards from Britain. They both comprise mostly radiate coins struck in the second half of the 3rd century and are the most important catalogues for people identifying radiate coins in Britain dating from AD 253 to AD 275. The Cunetio hoard was originally published as a single volume, The Cunetio Treasure by EM Besly and RF Bland (British Museum Press, 1983); the Normanby hoard was published along with several other hoards in The Normanby Hoard and other Roman coin hoards: Coin Hoards from Roman Britain VIII edited by RF Bland and AM Burnett (British Museum Press, 1988). This edition provides the two hoards in one volume with a note on more recent work on the radiate coinage of AD 253-96 and notes to aid identification by Sam Moorhead.
