Eighteenth-century Ormskirk was, in many ways, the archetypal provincial town. In this contribution to the ongoing debate on the success or failure of market towns during the crucial early modern period, local author Mona Duggan traces change in every aspect of the town's experience from the Restoration in 1660 to the turn of the nineteenth century and explores the role of the small market town in the nationwide urban renaissance of the eighteenth century. Fully illustrated with old photographs, engravings, maps and plans, this book - the first in-depth study of any northern market town - will be essential for anyone interested in the history of Ormskirk and invaluable for any serious student of early modern social, religious or economic history.

On August 1, 1943, an enormous armada of America B-24 Liberator bombers roared at nearly treetop level over the peaceful farms and villages of Romania. This mission was Operation Tidal Wave. Its targetââthe taproot of German might,â Hitlerâs giant oil refineries at Ploesti. Hundreds of U.S. airmen had volunteered for the mission despite warnings that half might not return. In thirty minutes, more firepower was exchanged than in two Gettysburgs, and five men earned the Medal of Honor. Ploesti presents a vivid reconstruction of a dramatic and controversial mission.
