Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an up-to-date collection of inquisitiones post mortem in the County of Nottinghamshire during the reign of Edward II. As inquests held to determine the feudal and financial obligations owed to the Crown when a tenant-in-chief died, these records provide rich social, economic and political insights into 14th-century England.Alongside fascinating genealogical details and tenurial information, the inquisitions often furnish us with valuable glimpses of the landscape, the agricultural practices and even the flora and fauna of the time.
