A volume dealing with the regional and local history of South East
England, this covers the landcape and society of the modern
counties of Surrey, Kent, East and West Sussex and Greater London,
south of the Thames from late Anglo-Saxon times to the present. The
authors have tried to show the diversity that can be found within
the region as well as common characteristics which illustrate the
local peculiarities of the area. The works in the series offer a
synthesis of both historical and archaeological work in local
areas. Each region is covered in two linked but independent
volumes, the first covering the period up to AD 1000 and
necessarily relying on archaeological data, and the second bringing
the story up to modern times. It aims to portray life as it was
experienced by the majority of people of South Britain or England
as it was to become. The authors look at the major historical
events which have an impact on the reagion - wars, plagues,
technological changes and socio-cultural trends amongst them - but
they also stress the underlying continuity of rural and urban life.
