Pierre Goubert is perhaps the foremost contemporary historian of the French peasantry. In this book he synthesises the work of a lifetime to produce a vivid and uniquely accessible account of rural life, in all its multi-faceted variety, as it was lived from cradle to the grave, in seventeenth-century France.
