The town’s location on the ancient Watling Street linking London with the Midlands and the North West has ensured its significance in each of these periods.In this book, local author Kate Morris portrays episodes in the social life of the charter borough and market, when the town gained in popularity with City merchants and professional folk, often as their ‘second home’. Morris reveals lesser-known events and characters of the Early Modern period of the town’s history. Some of the tales and happenings revealed are not untypical of those in other English towns, but their telling in this context will appeal to all those with an interest in St Albans and its history, and the book’s period illustrations and modern photography will delight.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 165mmItem Weight: 305gAuthor: Kate MorrisBook Series: SecretGenre: Home Garden & PetsRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
