The English Family 1450 - 1700

Ralph Houlbrooke's major study has made a vital contribution to debates on the family. Drawing on a wealth of colourful and often intimate evidence, including letters, diaries and witness statements in court cases, he reveals the attitudes and aspirations of all levels of society and challenges the fashionable notion that the years between 1450xxx;1700 saw major changes in family structure.
