Sir Francis Hill continues in this volume his majestic history of
his native city. Medieval Lincoln appeared in 1948, and was
reissued in 1965; Tudor and Stuart Lincoln was published in 1956.
This third volume, first published in 1966, covers the period of
the industrial revolution and parliamentary reform, the time of'
the Napoleonic war and the post-war depression. As in previous
volumes, local history is taken as a microcosm of the social
history of the nation. Sir Francis works from primary sources, many
of them unpublished; these give the feel of the period in a direct
and vivid way. Since Lincoln was a county town, a cathedral city, a
centre of trade and an industrial centre, its history is in many
ways representative of English history as a whole.
