The Northern Counties from AD 1000 (Paperback)
Series: Regional History of England

This volume explores the history of England's northern borders -
the former counties of Northumberland, Cumberland, Durham,
Westmorland and the Furness areas of Lancashire - across 1000
years. For most of them the region was a world of its own, often
disrupted by border warfare between England and Scotland yet
largely disregarded by the official authorities to south and north.
Peace in the 17th century brought prosperity and population growth;
a region virtually without wheeled traffic was opened up by
turnpike and railway; and the North East grew into one of the
dynamic hubs of industrial Britain, with ironworking, shipbuilding
and mining prominent among its thriving concerns.
