This work seeks to contribute to our understanding of social networks and hierarchies of the Stuart period. Destabilizing established stereotypes of omnipotent patriarchs and powerless wives, the book offers a view revealing more subtle power-play.
First sentence: On 25 September 1696, John Verney (1640-1717), a London Merchant, received a letter from his cousin Peg Adams.
