Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating history of one of London's oldest and most esteemed trade guilds: the Saddlers Company. Through meticulous research, the author takes readers on a journey through centuries of the company's evolution, beginning with its origins in the Anglo-Saxon period. We discover its relationship with the nearby convent of St. Martins-le-Grand and learn how the Saddlers Company navigated its place within the bustling commercial life of medieval London. The book explores the guild's early ordinances, disputes with other trades, and its participation in significant historical events like the French Wars of Edward III and the Gunpowder Plot. The author examines the company's internal structure, rules governing apprenticeships, and the evolving nature of the saddlery trade itself. Filled with colorful anecdotes and insightful commentary, this book offers a unique glimpse into the rich tapestry of London's social and commercial history through the lens of a single trade guild, making it an essential read for anyone interested in the history of the city and the vibrant world of medieval crafts.
