Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a treatise on the management and cultivation of land during the medieval era. Its roots lie in the growing awareness of the need to regulate and organize agricultural practices, and also in the increasing use of literature as a means of disseminating know-how. In detailing the practices of the day, including how to produce grains and manage livestock, the book provides insights into an important phase of agricultural history, when 14th-century England was undergoing a transformation from a decentralized feudal system to a centralized nation with an increasingly commercialized economy. Its insights are significant, as they offer a rare glimpse into the practicalities of medieval farming, especially the day-to-day operations of medieval estates.
