Six Centuries of Work and Wages, Vol. 1: The History of English Labour (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Six Centuries of Work and Wages, Vol. 1: The History of English Labour
The economical history Of England is illustrated with Singular clearness towards the end Of the eleventh century, by that great survey Of the whole kingdom, with the exception Of the four northern counties and part Of Lancashire, which is known as Domesday Book. This unique and invaluable record, which has never yet been adequately analysed, is a register Of landowners and tenants, describes the changes which had been effected by the Conquest, and exhibits the economical condition Of the English under the government Of William. But the social history Of England is almost a blank for nearly two centuries afterwards, except for the little which may be gathered from the chroniclers. The new light which is thrown on the economic and social condition of the country at the time when continuous archives inform us of the facts, reveals a very different state Of things from that which is exhibited in Domesday.
