PUP Day 11

More on Ownership society transformation in England.
References to Jane Austen, the gentry and how wealth married into nobility. The aspirations and hobbies of those who could afford more than sustenance. Again, thought about Downtown Abbey.
Detailed history of collapse of House of Lords. The Black Act, the fencing, the Irish question etc.

Tomorrow will learn about Sweden and that brings the Part 1 of the book to an end. Second part is Slave and Colonial Societies that includes India.
