About this title

Synopsis

From Roman times until the 20th century, much of the administration of England was carried out through sending letters. In this richly researched and illustrated volume, Philip Beale gives an insight into the use of letters at a time when few could write, yet the power of the letter was undisputed.

About the Author

Philip Beale read history at Cambridge, and is the present President of the Society of Postal Historians and a fellow of the Royal Philatelic Society.
