Book Synopsis Shaping Medieval Landscapes by : Tom Williamson
Book excerpt: A book which puts the environment back where it belongs - at the centre of the historical stage. To explain the rich, complex patterns in the English landscape today, we have to understand how the land was farmed in the medieval period. Some regions had large villages with extensive open fields; others had scattered hamlets and less communal forms of agriculture. These differences are still with us.
