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.
