Synopsis

""A Historical Account Of The Great Level Of The Fens, Called Bedford Level: And Other Fens, Marshes, And Lowlands In This Kingdom, And Other Places"" is a book written by William Elstobb in 1793. The book provides a detailed historical account of the Great Level of the Fens, which is an area of low-lying land in eastern England that was drained and reclaimed for agricultural use in the 17th century. Elstobb also describes other fens, marshes, and lowlands in the United Kingdom and other places. The book covers topics such as the history of drainage and reclamation, the methods used to drain the land, the impact on the local environment and economy, and the social and political implications of these changes. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of land use and environmental management in England and beyond.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
