Publisher's Synopsis
his is a meticulously compiled Index of the first twenty volumes of The Journal of Peasant Studies, prepared by the three present editors and with the assistance of Edward Lahiff and Gill Peace. A most valuable guide to the rich and diverse content of the journal is provided by the Subject Index giving a coherent framework without imposing a uniform imprint on the depth and range of the material. The Index includes an essay on the journal's origins and its first twenty years (by T J Byres) and a User's Guide (by Henry Bernstein).
