Social England in the Fifteenth Century (Barnes & Noble Digital Library): A Study of the Effects of Economic Conditions

Subtitled “A Study of the Effects of Economic Conditions,” Social England in the Fifteenth Century (1909) is an in-depth study of that century’s society and the immense industrial, agrarian, commercial, and financial changes that were prelude to the Renaissance and the Reformation. The author’s feminist leanings are visible when she purports that women must have been more skilled as workers than men were, because they held many more types of jobs.
