Title: The origins of Hertfordshire
First published: 2000
Description: "This book examines the history of Hertfordshire from late prehistoric times to the thirteenth century. It looks at the origins of the county and the early evolution of its landscape, and emphasises the surprising extent of continuity in structures of territorial organisation from the Roman period to the time of the Norman Conquest. Both archaeological and documentary sources are employed to throw new light on the history of this neglected county." "The origins of Hertfordshire will be of considerable interest to anyone with a serious enthusiasm for Hertfordshire and its past, and it is part of the successful Origins of the Shire series."--Jacket.
