About this book

These essays present case studies from English rural communities across the period 1250 to 1850. They find that a good deal of land changed hands between people who were not related by blood or by marriage, and that relatives were often not the only people in work groups or in networks of mutual help.

Although the focus falls on the sections of English society below the landed aristocracy, the book is of value to anyone studying how rural households managed land and labour over several centuries. It brings together the work of three contributors.
