This study considers how the English landed gentry secured their position of enduring wealth and power. Over the century between 1650 and 1750, they were transformed from a provincial social order to a national ruling elite. The author addresses the shaping of the cultural identity of the landed classes: their increasingly cosmopolitan outlook, their role in the new world party in the late Hanoverian eras and their influence on the supposed political stability of the mid-18th century.
