‘Our Lincolnshire’ (2015-16) was devised as a robust, multi-vocally informed exploration of the attitudes of residents and visitors in Lincolnshire to the county’s heritage and the ways in which they engage with it. The context for this was the recognition amongst the county heritage sector of a disconnect between citizens of Lincolnshire and heritage beyond the city of Lincoln which presents challenges when the purpose and function of museums and heritage services need to be reviewed, especially when funding issues are impacting on this process. Understanding attitudes and re-connecting the various audiences in Lincolnshire with their rural heritage in a meaningful and creative way is thus required to ensure the continued collection, curation and presentation of heritage assets is effective in caring for heritage now and for future generations and ensuring the heritage resource reflects, meets and advances the interests, needs and aspirations of Lincolnshire’s residents and visitors today. This volume outlines the methods, data, outcomes and recommendations that generated from this multi-dimensional and innovative research and engagement process.

The Women in Whites is the first-ever history of women’s cricket in England, from its origins in the 18th century through to the present day. The book shows that women have been part of cricket’s story from the very beginning – and have often led the way in innovations: from the invention of roundarm bowling in the 1800s, to contesting the first World Cup (1973), the first Twenty20 international (2004) and the first franchise cricket in England (the Kia Super League). Meet the pioneering women who founded the first Women’s Cricket Association in 1926, organised a round-the-world tour on a shoestring to play the first women’s Tests, and spent 47 years petitioning MCC before being allowed to play at Lord’s. Along the way, The Women in Whites debunks long-held assumptions, showing that cricket is not – and never was – just a ‘man’s sport’. Think you know everything there is to know about the history of cricket? Read this book and think again.
