Abstract

the policies whose effects the towns were seeking to reduce or escape. By the mid-1630s, Patterson argues, the old logic of urban patronage, which depended upon flexibility and negotiation and the power of personal connections to make a difference, seemed increasingly strained. This is an elegantly written, cogently argued and beautifully produced book. Its thick evidential base is reflected in a useful appendix which lists the high stewards of some 54 boroughs and compendious end-notes which will undoubtedly invite mining by other scholars. Although it constitutes neither the first nor the last word on the subject of urban patronage in early m o d e m England, this book offers m u c h that will be of interest to m a n y readers of this journal and represents an excellent, even essential, point of reference in the field.
