OSMUND AIRY (1845–1928)

Burnet's History Of My Own Time: A New Edition, Based On That Of M. J. Routh, D. D. (1897) · Gilbert Burnet (1643–1715) & Martin Joseph Routh (1755–1854)

ℹ️ "MR. AIRY'S edition of Burnet's book supersedes all earlier editions, and will remain an authority of permanent value for that portion of seventeenth-century history." (C. H. Firth, The English Historical Review, 07/1900)

Text-Book Of English History From The Earliest Times: For Colleges And Schools (1898, New Edition, Revised And Brought Down To 1897)

ℹ️ "It is hoped that this may prove useful as a text-book both for teachers and for those students who, while their knowledge of facts is incomplete, are mature enough to desire to connect events with their causes and effects, and to feel an interest in constitutional questions.

It is seldom that any general view of a period is grasped by a learner. I have endeavoured to deal with this difficulty partly by care in the headings of books and chapters, partly by short summaries. The facts upon which these summaries are based are given in the fullest detail possible in the space to which the narrative is necessarily confined."
(Preface To The First Edition)
