The historic rural settlement bibliography below is searchable by author and keyword. It contains nearly 800 titles published between 1536 and the present day. If you know the name of the author of the publication you are looking for type in all or part of the surname in the 'author' field. If you wish instead to do a keyword search enter your search word in the 'keyword' field. You can combine the two fields by entering an author's name as well as a keyword. This will return only entries where the name appears in combination with the particular keyword.
