Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. The Pastons: A Family in the Wars of the Roses By Richard Barber Published in London by The Folio Society, 1981 Description and Subject Matter A 1981 Folio Society edition of The Pastons: A Family in the Wars of the Roses, presented in as new condition, housed in its original slipcase. The book itself is in excellent, as new condition, with clean decorated cloth boards, a tight binding, and a pristine, unmarked text block. The slipcase is in good condition, showing mild shelf wear consistent with careful storage. This compelling historical study explores the story of the Paston family, whose extensive surviving correspondence - the celebrated Paston Letters - provides one of the most vivid and detailed first-hand accounts of life in fifteenth-century England. Set during the turbulent period of the Wars of the Roses, the book reconstructs the family's social ambitions, property disputes, political loyalties, and daily domestic concerns as they navigated the dynastic struggles between the houses of York and Lancaster. Drawing on authentic contemporary letters, the work offers both an intimate portrait of late medieval family life and a broader insight into English society, governance, patronage networks, and social mobility during one of the most dramatic periods in English history. This finely produced Folio Society edition combines scholarly value with attractive design and strong shelf presence. An excellent copy for collectors of medieval history, English political history, and Folio Society publications.
