The Worthies Of Yorkshire & Lancashire - Being Lives Of The Most Distinguished Persons That Have Been Born In Or Connected With Those Provinces
By Hartley Coleridge
Published by William Adams: Hull c1836 (scarce undated edition published by William Adams - reserach completed indicates this to be a c1836 edition however you are encouraged to do your own research to be satisfied prior to purchase).

" Hartley Coleridge's The Worthies of Yorkshire and Lancashire offers a richly detailed panorama of the eminent figures hailing from England's northern counties, blending biography with regional pride. Written in Coleridge's characteristic eloquent prose, the work pays tribute to scholars, poets, inventors, and reformers whose lives contributed to the cultural and intellectual fabric of Yorkshire and Lancashire. Coleridge's treatment is both admiring and incisive, illuminating not just achievements but the moral and social contexts that shaped these "worthies." His writing reflects the early Victorian fascination with regional distinction and the moral character of industrious northern England.

This scarce Hull-issued edition by William Adams, dating from around 1836, is of particular interest to collectors due to its rarity and association with the Coleridge family literary heritage. It captures a moment in time when local biography was emerging as a national form of historical commemoration. A valuable addition to collections of early Victorian literature, English regional history, or biographical works, it will appeal to admirers of the Coleridge circle, as well as collectors of Yorkshire and Lancashire historical imprints."
