All of human life is here, from composers to conmen, from military men—and a woman—to medical pioneers and nineteenth-century manufacturers, from daring explorers to one of the great entertainers of the music hall era. The county can claim many more who were either born or lived here for a major part of their lives, who made their mark with colorful enterprise or diligent toil. All of them called Worcestershire home and their contribution to its rich and varied history is remembered here in this well-researched and engaging book. 538 System requirements: Adobe Digital editions. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Criminals|zEngland|zWorcestershire|vBiography. 650 0 Heroes|zEngland|zWorcestershire|vBiography. 650 7 HISTORY / Europe / Great Britain.|2bisacsh 651 0 Worcestershire (England)|vBiography. 655 0 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aWardle, Terry, 1944-|tHeroes & villains of Worcestershire.|dStroud : History, 2010.|z9780752455150 (pbk.)|w(DLC)2010534668 914 frd00011644
