Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. In Yeovil in the Great War 1914-1918 Jack Sweet takes a personal look back on the town during those momentous years from the outbursts of patriotic fervour of August 1914 when many believed that the war would be over by Christmas, to the Armistice of November 1918 and a short time beyond. Jack recalls how Yeovil welcomed Belgian refugees fleeing the German invasion of their home land, how the Baptist Newnam Memorial Hall was converted into a hospital for wounded soldiers, the beginnings of Westland Aircraft and of a test pilot who was later convicted of murder. There is an account of a deserter from the Salonika Front and how young women from many parts of the country helped to harvest the important flax crops. He relates how the town suffered in the influenza pandemic of 1918 and how the Peace Treaty of July 1919 was celebrated. Scarcely a Yeovil family remained untouched by the Great War; over two hundred men would lose their lives and several hundred more would be wounded. Alderman Jabez Matthews, a future Mayor, would lose three sons.Jack Sweet's father, who was severely wounded and suffered from the effects for the rest of his life, would lose a great friend and two cousins, and one of his mother's cousins would return home to die from his wounds. The Great War, or as it was said at the time, "The War to End Wars", changed the world forever but tragically only twenty-one years later the Second World War broke out in September 1939.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Jack William Sweet relates shocking true events and personal stories which have terrified and horrified this seemingly placid county over the centuries. Spanning one hundred and fifty years, from early nineteenth-century witchcraft to the fear of spies and tragic deaths of the First World War, he recounts mysterious tales of the Highway Robberies of 1872, a Violent Death in Crewkerne, Bigamy, and the sinister murder of John Edney by his young wife Sophia. For many, Somerset evokes images of rural charm and serenity, a pastoral oasis of calm in the south west. However, in his latest book, Jack William Sweet shows a different Somerset. There is a shocking, surprising and sometimes strange aspect to the county of his birth, the land of legend, beauty and romance. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Yeovil Memories covers a wide range of stories, from a tragic drowning in the River Yeo in 1856, the hardships of the savage winter of 1861 and that of two families who lost their cottages in a fire in February 1906, the lucky escape of a Westland test pilot as his aircraft broke up in mid-air in August 1934, and the top of the music charts of August 1952, to pop concerts in the Liberal Hall in 1965.Jack Sweet seeks to jog the collective memory of Yeovil's past, reliving memories, good, bad and occasionally downright awful (at least for those who had the misfortune to experience one and remain to tell the tale).Perhaps the Californian poet Clarency Urmy (1858-1923) summed it up;'Old Songs are best - how sweet to hear.The strains of home and memory dear!Old books are best - how tale and rhymeFloat with us down the stream of time!'.…
