Book Synopsis Ordinary Writings, Personal Narratives by : Martyn Lyons
Book excerpt: Historians have often assumed that the lives of the poor and illiterate can never be known because they have left little record of their existence. This book, however, will establish some of the main themes of a new field of historical study: that of 'ordinary writings' - the improvised writings of the poor and the young.
