Sobre IBD

Chimes And Rhymes is a collection of romantic tales and verses centered around the town of Bromsgrove in England. Written by John Cotton and published in 1903, the book features stories and poems that celebrate the history, culture, and people of the town. The title refers to the bells of Bromsgrove, which are a prominent feature of the town’s landscape, and the nails, which were traditionally made in Bromsgrove and used in the construction of ships. The book includes a variety of themes, including love, nature, and local folklore, and is a charming and nostalgic tribute to the town and its traditions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
