Summary "John Keble's Parishes: A History of Hursley and Otterbourne" by Charlotte M. Yonge is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The book examines the history of two English parishes, Hursley and Otterbourne, with a focus on their development over time, the significant individuals associated with them, and the socio-economic changes that have shaped these communities. Yonge's work appears to build upon an earlier history by Reverend John Marsh, incorporating new findings and perspectives to create a thorough narrative of the area's past. The opening of the book provides a preface outlining the author's intentions, mentioning the need for an updated history in light of advancements since Marsh's original work in the early 19th century. It notes the importance of recording local history and explores the physical geography and archaeological findings in the region. The beginning establishes context for Hursley and Otterbourne, touching upon the landscapes, flora, and fauna, as well as some archaeological discoveries that link previous ages to modern times. This preamble effectively sets the stage for a deeper exploration into the various historical epochs, including medieval times and beyond, showcasing the rich tapestry of life in these parishes.
