Within its ancient boundaries, Staffordshire is a county of diverse
and contrasting historic landscapes. World-renowned industrial
complexes sit alongside agricultural systems; castles rub shoulders
with urban-industrial housing; the cathedral centre of a vast
diocese lies close to the birthplace of primitive Methodism;
overtly planned landscapes mingle with the uplands of the Moorlands
and the heathlands of Cannock Chase. These many and varied
landscapes are both products and reflections of a multiplicity of
histories, and students of the county have been keen to explore and
relate these pasts. However, no systematic attempt has previously
been made to express these accounts in spatial form. This book
seeks to demonstrate by maps the various histories that contribute
to the diversity of Staffordshire. With its succinct discussions
and detailed map presentations of these themes, incorporating new
thinking and recent research, the atlas provides an innovative and
major contribution to the study of the history of Staffordshire. --
