Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of medieval land ownership in Worcestershire, England. The author meticulously examines the "Inquisitions post mortem" - official records detailing the estates of deceased landowners compiled between the 13th and 17th centuries. These record…s, often referred to as "Inquests," were created to ensure the King's rights as feudal lord were respected, and to identify rightful heirs and determine the value of estates. Through detailed analysis of these records, the author paints a vibrant picture of medieval society.

By revealing the intricate details of landownership and the relationships between landowners and their tenants, the author offers a captivating window into the daily lives, customs, and economic realities of medieval Worcestershire.
