OverviewExcerpt from History of the English Landed Interest: Its Customs Laws and Agriculture There is another section of the public for which this book has been more especially undertaken. I allude to the Casual Reader; and it has astonished me to find, by personal experience, how many may be included under this heading. In my intercourse with the various classes engaged in some form of industry on large estates, I have frequently heard a want expressed for in formation on the historical side of their employment. Short, simple histories of our Land Laws7 our Agriculture, our Gardening, etc., would find many readers amongst that por tion of the community which frequents our Free Libraries; and some day, if I meet with any encouragement in my present undertaking, and when I have carried it down to the latest date, I h0pe to attempt such a work on Agriculture alone. Frequently, when engaged in my business, but more especi ally two years ago, whilst writing my book on Land Agency, I had been prompted to undertake some such work as this by the discovery of much in our landed system that was in congruous and inexplicable, except when Opened to the under standing by the key of history. No doubt what I have felt must have been also experienced by many others engaged in Land Agency, and I therefore venture to h0pe that interested readers may be found in the ranks of my profession, as well as amidst those of other practical men associated with the soil.
