The Stonor letters and papers form one of only three surviving
archives of gentry correspondence from late medieval England. The
collection which includes documents ranging from love letters to
household accounts provides us with a wealth of otherwise
unobtainable detail about the lives and careers of a gentry family,
their servants and their friends. Much of the material comes from
the period of the Wars of the Roses, and allows us an insider's
view on national events and the people involved in them. Originally
edited by the historian C.L. Kingsford at the beginning of the
century, the complete collection is reissued here, with a new
introduction and annotation by Christine Carpenter. In many ways
more representative of gentry life than the Paston letters, the
Stonor letters and papers should be valuable to scholars of late
medieval England, and should also make fascinating reading for
anyone interested in the Wars of the Roses or life in medieval
England.
