| Summary | "The Forest of Dean: An Historical and Descriptive Account" by H. G. Nicholls is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book explores the rich history and cultural significance of the Forest of Dean, a region in Gloucestershire known for its unique geography and historical connections to iron mining and local traditions. It aims to provide a comprehensive narrative derived from both personal observations and various historical sources that delve into the past of this remarkable area. At the start of the book, the author expresses disappointment that no prior history of the Forest of Dean had been published, prompting him to undertake this project. He introduces themes of local traditions, the significance of iron mining, and references to historical figures and events. Nicholls emphasizes the importance of capturing the area's heritage before the old customs fade away, indicating that the content will blend archival research with vivid descriptions to engage both local residents and general readers interested in the history of this picturesque locale.
