The Complete Steward, first published in 1761, offers a comprehensive guide to estate management in the 18th century. John Mordant details the multifaceted duties of a steward, from overseeing agricultural improvements and managing timber to handling finances and ensuring the overall prosperity of the lord's estate. This book presents new methods for optimizing land use, alongside practical tables for measuring timber and calculating interest. A valuable historical resource, The Complete Steward provides insights into the economic and social structures of Georgian England and remains relevant for those interested in the history of agriculture and land management.
