About this book
First Published in 1960, Social Life in Early England provides an authoritative introduction to the periods of English history usually taught in the middle school. The essays in the volume are well adapted in picking out the social background and environment in which English history moved, from the time of the Roman settlement until the close of the Middle Ages. It discusses themes like Roman Britain; English monasteries; development of the castle in England and Wales; European arms and armour; Norman London; the meaning of medieval moneys and medieval trade routes. This is a must read for students of British history.
This book contains four fold out plan maps, which, due to modern print-on-demand manufacture cannot be reproduced. They are available from the publisher, free-of-charge to any purchaser of the book.
