Eileen Spring presents an interpretation of the history of
inheritance among the English gentry and aristocracy. In a work
that recasts both the history of real property law and the history
of the family, she argues that one of the principal and
determinative features of upper-class inheritance was the virtual
exclusion of females from land holding. Tracing the gradual
nullification of common law rules under which 40 per cent of
English land would have been inherited or held by women, Spring
seeks to makes possible a fuller understanding of the social
history of land law.
