Description:
A fine clean First Edition copy, Number 75 of a numbered edition, of "The Freedom : The Past and Present of the Livery, Guilds and City of London", by Valerie Hope, Clive Birch and Gilbert Torry, published by Barracuda Books of Buckingham in 1982. Tells the story of the City's past from Roman Londinium to Saxon Lundenwyc; from ancient liberties to Common Hall; from the rise of capitalism to the collapse of the laws against profit; from the crises of the 17th century to the coffee houses that spawned modern finance, and through the succeeding centuries to the modern Square Mile. Here are the office and functions of the Lord Mayor, Sheriffs and Aldermen; their election and selection; courts, exchanges, markets, charities, schools, churches and other facets of the modern City. And here is a concise record of every single Livery Company and Guild, past and present. Hard covers, 288 pages, original dust jacket. Ref. **.
