This second volume of John Rule's major two-volume portrait of Georgian England is a comprehensive and authoritative survey of eighteenth-century society, incorporating the exciting new research findings of recent years. It deals in turn with the upper class, 'middling sort' and lower orders; with popular education, religion and culture; with standards of living in town and country; and with crime, punishment and protest. The book, which is as rich and varied as the age it explores, ends with an assessment of continuity and change across the century.

'Professor Rule's credentials for undertaking this daunting task are, of course, impeccable xxx; he offers a judicious, up-to-date and wide-ranging guide to the prodigious expansion of eighteenth-century social and economic history.'
