Harlaxton Medieval Studies Volume IX. Edited by Eales & Tyas. Many of the families examined in this volume show a rearkable resilience to adversity. They could rise in favour as quickly as fall from it, but the shock of disinheritance which faced many families during political reversals, especially after failed bids for greater power, is balanced by their not infrequent recover of title, sometimes decades later. Orange cloth boards, gilt title to spine. B/w plates to rear. ISBN: 1900289547. Name & date in ink to front endpaper else a lovely copy. Green dustwrapper is lightly creased and lightly scuffed.
