About
"The Paston Letters, A.D. 1422-1509. Volume 1 (of 6)" edited by James Gairdner is a collection of correspondence published in 1904. These letters between members of the Norfolk Paston family and their associates offer an intimate window into English life during the Wars of the Roses and early Tudor period. Written during the Great Vowel Shift, they document the transformation from Late Middle English to Early Modern English. The collection's dramatic history includes mysteriously vanished manuscripts and their gradual rediscovery across England, vindicating their authenticity after scholarly doubt.
