The Stonor letters and papers, like the better known Paston letters, form one of only three surviving archives of gentry correspondence from late medieval England. The Stonor collection provides us with a wealth of otherwise unobtainable detail about the lives and careers of a gentry family, their servants and their friends. This reissue of the classic Kingsford edition (with a new introduction and annotation from Christine Carpenter) will be essential reading for scholars of late medieval England, and for anyone interested in the Wars of the Roses, or life in medieval England generally.
