Description

In the late 18th century, Members of the English gentry - a tiny group of roughly 1,000 households sandwiched between the ruling nobility and the peasants, and a rough analog for the contemporary "middle class" - the Pastons' experience, recorded

Covering the years from 1421 to 1484, and the lives of three generations of Pastons, the Gieses provide a rare window into the day-to-day life of this family, and the broader political and social goings-on of medieval England. We learn Readers are also treated to accounts of locally significant historical events, such as the Siege of Caister and the Battle of Barnet.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
