This 1967 volume was the result of a project which originated a
decade before its publication, when scholars from eleven British
universities met under the presidency of the late R. H. Tawney and
decided to create a work of co-operative scholarship covering the
entire social and economic history of rural England and Wales from
the neolithic period to the twentieth century. This was the first
of eight volumes to appear, and deals with such topics as the
structure of farming regions, agricultural techniques, and estate
management by the crown. Based as it is on studies that span the
entire kingdom, a picture of Tudor and early Stuart England and
Wales emerges which differs at many points from the conventions of
textbooks. Full account has been taken not only of previous
scholarship, but also the national archives, while the manuscript
deposits in the various county record offices have been freely
tapped.
