Do you think that, way back in the early 1900's when they were writing it, the Reverend William Beresford and Samuel Beresford could ever have imagined copies of their 'Beresford of Beresford 'Part 1- A History of the Manor of Beresford' would still be in print in 2026, could be ordered on something called the internet ( www.beresfordfamilysociety.org) or bought at the BFS Spring Gathering on the 16th May?
Sadly, 'whilst the last sheets were in the press death carried off Mr. Samuel B. Beresford ' but copies of the original 1908 publication, now bound in modern day covers in red or green, are available
There is something special about the look, the feel, the smell , the turn of phrase of these books and, having survived through several generations, wouldn't it do justice to William and Samuel to be able to pass them on to future ones?
