More about the book
"We know very little about spinsters in earlier times, for the stigma attached to the unmarried state often rendered these women almost invisible. Now this book opens a window into the lives of English spinsters in the mid-seventeenth to mid-nineteenth centuries, assessing the opportunities open to them and the restrictions placed upon them within different social classes, occupations and periods."--BOOK JACKET.
