Volume 40: Buckinghamshire Justicing Notebooks: Sir Roger Hill (1689-1705) and Edmund Waller (1772-1788) (2021)

edited by Roger Bettridge Introduction by Roger Bettridge and John Broad

Justicing diaries provide day-to-day information about what local JPs were doing to maintain law and order, and supervise local administration in the era before Petty Sessions were formalised. Hill and Waller worked eighty years apart, but geographically in the same quarter of Buckinghamshire and their similarities and contrasts are nicely displayed in this volume.
