Dekalb, Illinois: Northern Illinois University Press, 1985. — 259 p.
This book is an examination of several crucial aspects of the history of the nobility during that period of rapid social change; the changing relationships of the nobility to the land and to traditional occupational roles, the significance of the campaign waged by the self-appointed traditionalist defenders of noble interests and of the response they evoked from both the nobility and the state, and the emergence of a class of substantial landed proprietors out of the noble estate.Contents
