This history of Ruislip, Northwood & Eastcote brings to life the rural past of what are now suburbs of London. Reminders of many historical periods abound. Earthworks surround a possible Saxon settlement. A moat & mound reveal a possible Norman castle. The church & the Great Barn were built when monks of the Abbey of Bec lived on what is now Manor Farm. More than forty of the cottages mentioned in 16th century documents can still be found among modern houses, Once again, as with many outlying areas, the railway from 1887 made the area accessible to visitors

The Royal Navy of the 19th & early 20th centuries was a legendary force: it claimed supremacy in every ocean, policed the empire & provided the force behind Britain's power in the world. During this period the Service was commletely transformed, from the wooden walls of Nelson's time to the steel dreadnoughts, destroyers & submarines which fought at Jutl&. Padfield describes the struggle to adapt to the radical changes which affected every aspect of weapons, tactics, education, propulsion, training & social attitudes. Rule Britannia looks, in human terms, at the background to the legends that accumulate about any service as splendid & uniquely powerful as the Royal Navy, setting down the reality in the words of those who served. Topics covered include: how an expedition was mounted to punish an African tribe; what a sailor was paid & how he was disciplined; what he ate & the diseases he suffered; his pride; his moments of frolic & his exhilaration in the chase. This work penetrates beneath the legend, describing each of the navy's tasks & illustrating the lives & attitudes of both the officers & the men of this superbly arrogant force. ...
