Description

"What really happened during the early modern period in the place once described as 'the most rebellious town in Devon'? In this micro-history of an English town and its people, Pamela Sharpe aims to reproduce the lives of ordinary individuals in the east Devon parish of Colyton. She stresses the diversity of local experience over a period of three hundred years and provides a vivid and refreshing consideration of everyday life in a town visited by plague, Civil War, religious radicalism and industrial changes."--BOOK JACKET.
