English Rural Society, 1200-1350 0073209422 like clockworkThis title, first published in 1969, is concerned with historic documents and their uses, and with a discussion of living standards among the peasants, as it is the authors belief that any worthwhile discussion is impossible without an understanding of the sources and their limitations.
