Thomas Newbigging (1833-1914) was a Scottish historian and engineer, who made his home in Lancashire Rossendale and Manchester hence the subject of this collection's first essay, 'Lancashire Factory Doffers'. He was an expert in gas engineering, wrote the The Gas Manager's Handbook (1870; which ran to at least eight editions), as well as serving as President of the Gas Institute in 1885. Three years after the publication of this title, Newbigging stood unsuccessfully as the Liberal Party's candidate for Rossendale. As the title perhaps suggests, this essay collection wanders broadly in terms of subject matter from the cotton industry to Gull Moss and Thomas Chatterton to Oliver Goldsmith but mostly with a strong Lancashire flavour.
