Village England | |||
| A Social History of the Countryside | History | |||
| Trevor Wild | ||||
| IB Tauris 2004 204 pages | ||||
| Hardback 1860649394 | ||||
| Published Price £39.50 | Our Price £14.99 | |||
| Trevor Wild tells the story of village England from its origins to the present day, eschewing the 'idyllic vision of rurality' to explore a darker, unromantic history that includes dispossession, impoverishment, social transformation, agricultural failure, the destruction of tradition and widespread suburbanization. The focus of the study is on the impact of this 'deeper history' on the social values, landscape and way of life in English villages and the English countryside. | ||||

| Paperback 1860647081 | ||||
| Published Price £16.99 | Our Price £5.99 | |||
| This volume challenges existing ideas about retail development, showing how, for example, large-scale retailers played a far lesser role in the growth of the modern city than is generally thought, and how the success of department stores was determined less by 'entrepreneurial spirit' and more by the unforeseen consequences of legislation. In the nine essays contributors also consider aspects | ||||

| Published Price £16.99 | Our Price £6.99 | |||
| Focusing on changing patterns of violent behaviour, public and private, Clive Emsley's study explores 'the popularly held assumption that English society became increasingly less violent during the 19th century and that it remained essentially non-violent up to the middle of the 20th century at least'. He examines how the English have perceived themselves and how they have explained the violence within | ||||
