The Autobiography of Mrs. Alice Thornton, of East Newton, Co. York
Alice Thornton (1626–1707) was a middle-class woman who was best known for her autobiography describing the English Civil War and its effects on her life.

IV.— The Spoon and its history; its form, material, and development, more particularly in England
There can be little doubt that the spoon which now performs such an indispensable part in our domestic economy may lay claim to descent from a very high antiquity.
