Leisure; the way we wereby Ed. by Mary Mills
Book desription: English Heritage, 2007. Paperback. New Book. Paperback. This extensive collection of period photographs describes the ways Britons entertained themselves from the dawning of photography up to the middle of the twentieth century, and details the amusement parks, sports venues, eating emporia, fairs, fetes, and opportunities for mischief of the common people. Here you can examine the truly British picnic and moor race, the fine points of skittles, and even the crowning of a donkey by the pearly king and queen, all of which seem to be a lot more fun than today's video games. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co. (©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR)
