What is The Justices of the Peace 1679 - 1760 about?

As I write this, I realize how fortunate I have been in my friends, colleagues, and teachers. Doing research in English documents while working in North America poses some peculiar problems. Dr. Scott Waugh, Dr. Roger Knight, and Mr. Michael Collinge took time from their own researches to locate documents and send me information. My sister, Reva Landau, both copied documents in the British Library and recruited her friends to stamp headings on hundreds of cards so that I could concisely record information on Kent's justices. I very much appreciate her forbearance and good humour. It was my very good fortune to take undergraduate courses from Professor John M. Beattie at the University of Toronto. Professor Beattie's lectures aroused my interest in eighteenth century England, and his subsequent advice and encouragement stimulated my research. As a graduate student, I studied at the University of California at Berkeley, where I found in Professor Thomas G. Barnes a scholar eager to impart his knowledge of English law and local government. The comments of Professors Walter Woodfill, David Spring, D.C. Moore, Daniel Calhoun, and William Hagen assisted me in transforming early versions
