This volume contains 582 inquests held by Sussex Coroners during the reign of Elizabeth I that are known to survive. They arose from murder, manslaughter, homicide committed accidentally and in self-defence, suicide, accidental death, sudden death from natural causes and the death of prisoners. Although occasioned by death, the inquests also provide snap-shots of most aspects of Elizabethan life. The book contains material of use to social, economic, legal and administrative historians, for Sussex topographers, and for geneaologists. All these interests should be served by the three separate indices - of person, places and subjects. A reduced price is available to members of the Sussex Record Society.
