Summary "Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, 'Clervaux' to 'Cockade'" by Various is a comprehensive reference work written in the early 20th century. This volume serves as a collection of articles covering various topics, including notable figures, historical places, and significant terms from arts, sciences, and general knowledge. The content is organized alphabetically, with entries that present concise overviews and definitions that aim to educate readers on a broad spectrum of subjects. The opening portion of this encyclopedic work introduces several entries beginning with the letter "C." It discusses locations such as Clervaux in Luxembourg, which has historical significance due to its resistance against French conscription in the late 18th century, and Clevedon in Somerset, highlighting its unique characteristics and historical sites. Other entries provide insights into prominent individuals, like Grover Cleveland, a notable U.S. president, and Barbara Villiers, Duchess of Cleveland, detailing their life stories, influences, and contributions. Overall, the beginning of this volume sets the stage for an extensive and informative compilation that spans various domains of knowledge. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
