The History of the Forest of Rossendale is a comprehensive account of the development and evolution of the forest area in the Rossendale region of Lancashire, England. Written by Thomas Newbigging, the book covers the period from the earliest records of the forest in the 13th century, through to the 19th century when the forest was largely depleted due to industrialization and urbanization.The book provides a detailed insight into the social and economic history of the region, including the impact of the forest on local communities, the use of the forest for hunting and timber production, and the role of the forest in the development of the textile industry in the area. The author also explores the impact of the Industrial Revolution on the forest and its people, and the subsequent decline of the forest as a result of the growth of the cotton industry.The book is well-researched and provides a wealth of information on the history of the forest and the people who lived and worked in the area. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Lancashire, the Industrial Revolution, or the impact of human activity on the natural environment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
