Description:St. Martin's Press, New York. Published 1986. Hardcover; xiii, 239 pp; 22 cm. First edition. Black and white maps, tables, and figures. Includes bibliographical references and index. A scholarly collection of essays examining the English land tax from its introduction in 1692 through its decline and reform in the early nineteenth century. Contributors include Michael Turner, Dennis Mills, Sarah Banks, John Broad, Janice Crowther, Margaret Noble, Adrian Henstock, Robert Unwin, John Beckett, Donald Ginter, and Richard Grover. [From front jacket flap] This book brings forward a much needed review of work based on the Land Tax Assessments. It opens with a substantial historiographical essay by Turner and then moves on to Part I, which comprises three rural case studies. The chapter by Crowther on E. Yorkshire enclosure cultivates familiar ground, but Banks' comparison of Assessments and Tithe Surveys in W. Norfolk and Broad's contribution on village communities are less conventional studies. In Part II, three authors break quite new ground in examining urban and industrial areas with the help of the Unwin in the Barnsley coalfield, Henstock and Noble in country towns in Derbyshire and E. Yorkshire. Part III considers administrative aspects of the land tax (Beckett) and the difficult but interesting question of revaluation (Ginter). Mills and Grover explore the use of Assessments of the pre-1780 period in Rutland, Cambs, Lincs, Kent and Sussex and the book is completed by a directory giving the survival of pre-1780 Assessments throughout England and Wales.
