The English Peasantry and the Enclosure of Common Fields by Gilbert Slater is a historical account of the enclosure movement in England during the 18th and 19th centuries. The book explores the impact of enclosure on the English peasantry, who were forced to give up their traditional ways of life and livelihoods as a result of the enclosure of common fields. Slater examines the social, economic, and political factors that led to the enclosure movement, as well as the consequences of enclosure for the peasantry, including displacement, poverty, and social unrest. The book also delves into the role of the government in promoting and regulating enclosure, and the resistance of the peasantry to enclosure through protests and riots. Overall, The English Peasantry and the Enclosure of Common Fields provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of a pivotal period in English history that had a profound impact on the lives of ordinary people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
