DEGREESTBurton on Trent: A History DEGREESAby Richard Stone >A powerful Benedictine monastery brought five centuries of modest medieval prosperity - and peace - though not with-out tales of sleaze and corruption at the abbey, nor of mixed fortunes experienced by generations of the Paget lords of the manor. Then, as industry began to transform Britain into the workshop of the world, Burton enjoyed the energy, virtue and vision of such men as Michael Thomas Bass. From this period onwards the author brilliantly combines documentary and visual sources to illuminate the rapid growth of the town over the past two centuries, and to describe, where possible with carefully chosen pictures, many lives and events that will fascinate all who live in Burton today or have an interest in its historic past.
