An Imperial State at War: Britain from 1689-1815
ISBN: 9780415513296 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Like the Sinews of Power itself, this is a...

Open Elite: England 1540-1880
ISBN: 9780198206071 / Angielski / Miękka / 1984 / 590 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. An Open Elite? sets out to test the traditional view that for centuries English landed society has been open to new families made rich by business or public office. From a detailed examination of the landed elites of three counties between 1540 and 1880, the authors come to radical new conclusions about the landed classes. They describe the strategies of marriage and inheritance evolved by older families to preserve their position, and establish that the number of newcomers was always relatively small. The resulting work is a major reassessment of the social, economic, and political history...
