description: Thomas Turner (1729-1793) was a hard-working and ingenious village shopkeeper in Sussex. In the eleven years of his diary, he recorded the minutiae of everyday village life in pre-industrial England. This edition contains about a third of the massive whole of the diary, but allows Turner totake his rightful place alongside Pepys, Evelyn, and Woodforde as an indispensable English diarist.
