Who owns Britain

Cahill, K.

Who owns Britain - Edinburgh Canongate 2001 - xiv, 450p. ; 27cm.

Tells the story of land ownership in the UK and Ireland, detailing all 118 counties. The fruit of years of research, Kevin Cahill's investigation reveals how the 6000 or so aristocratic names who together own about 40 million acres of the country, have maintained their grip on the land of Britain right through the twentieth century. Cahill argues that the concentration of landownership continues to hold back the growth of the UK economy.
