Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Histories of the Four Adjoining Parishes of Waterbeach, Longbeach, Horningsey, and Milton, in the County of Cambridge
The object aimed at has been, not only to give a reliable History of the very interesting parish of Waterbeach, but to render that History as full as is consistent with the manner of its publication, neither, on the one hand, loading it (which might easily have been done) with matter, so as unreason ably to increase its bulk, nor, on the other, omit ting anything indispensable to set the subj ect pro perly before the reader. To carry out satisfactorily an object so desirable no pains' have been spared: information has been sought, wherever it appeared likely to be obtained. Moreover, the ready assist ance of others has not been wanting in the way of addition and improvement. It is still possible, that points, of importance, perhaps, have been passed over; it is also possible, that mistakes, and on things of moment, have been committed, in a work, whose almost every line contains the assertion of some fact.
