The Oxford companion to local and family history
by David Hey
The last thirty years have seen a huge growth of interest in local and family history, both as subjects for the general enthusiast and as an area of academic study. With over 2,000 entries this Companion caters admirably for this growing popularity by providing detailed summaries of the latest knowledge in such fields as social, urban, agricultural, legal, family, and ecclesiastical history.
Covering a broad canvas, from prehistory to the present day, and taking in the whole of the British isles, the Companion paints a vivid picture of rural and urban life. An appendix at the back of the book lists national and major county record offices along with special collections of national interest.
