The book offers an extensive biographical account of 884 individuals in Britain who left estates valued at £100,000 or more between 1809 and 1914, equivalent to around £10 million today. Authored by Professor Rubinstein, a leading expert on British wealth-holding, it details each person's occupation, family background, education, marital status, children, heirs, religious affiliations, political activities, and land ownership, providing a comprehensive view of wealth and its societal implications during this period.
