Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: Grantham During the Interregnum. The Hallbook of Grantham 1641 - 1649 by Bill Couth. Lincoln Record Society Vol 83 Summary: Edited and transcribed by Bill Couth and published by the Lincoln Record Society in 1995, this volume presents the surviving Hall Book (Corporation minute book) of Grantham covering the years 1641-1649, during the English Civil War. It is a primary source containing the official minutes of the town's governing corporation, accompanied by an introduction and editorial notes. The Hall Book offers an unusually detailed picture of how a provincial English market town functioned during the Civil War, showing that municipal government continued despite military occupation and political upheaval. Rather than focusing on battles, it reveals the practical realities of wartime administration and the resilience of local institutions. Bill Couth's edition demonstrates that the English Civil War was not only fought on battlefields but also in towns like Grantham, where civic leaders struggled to maintain order, finance local services, and protect their community while caught between opposing armies. The Hall Book is therefore an invaluable source for understanding everyday life, local government, and the social and economic effects of the Civil War in seventeenth-century England.
