Men Who Ruled Coventry, 1725-1780
56pp. Black and white illustrations. No 14 in the Coventry and Warwickshire Pamphlet series. Very good clean and neat copy, mild toning. Considers the role of alderman and others in governing and controlling the city of Coventry in the mid 18th century, a period between the notorious litigious battle for the control of Sir Thomas White's charity, and the equally notorious scandals around local election rigging in the late 18th century.
