It is perhaps the oldest surviving English county, for it was a division of the early West Saxon kingdom and the only one to survive, intact, the brutal re-organisation of local government of 1974. This book is the first comprehensive account of the social and economic changes which have affected the county over 6,000 years.* A NEAR FINE copy of the 1st/1st with NO MAJOR FAULTS reduced by minor dust jacket faults to VG.*
