Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Domesday Book is a statistical survey of England in 1086 A.D. it is a census of the population and productive resources of the country, of their value and of who held them. It was unmatched in Europe for many centuries, the product of a sophisticated and experienced English administration, fully exploited by the Conquerors commanding energy. Its name is known to everyone and everyone can now have access to its text, and, within the limitations of contemporary scholarship, its meaning.

The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
