British Popular Customs Present and Past eBook Thomas F Thiselton Dyer
This is not a definitive guide to all British customs and traditions, because no such guide exists. However, this is unquestionably the most comprehensive guide I have ever seen, listing not only primary traditions but also many variants and where they are practiced. This isn't really a guide for tourists looking for quaint stuff, partially because traditions have changed or vanished as holidays have changed, but would be good for anyone wanting to actually learn more about an aspect of British history that gets overlooked by the history books.Product details
