Masterless Men (1985) examines the nature of vagrancy in Tudor and Stuart England, an issue that many contemporary authorities regarded as their most serious social problems. It looks at why vagrancy was felt to be such a threat to the stability of the country, and the steps the authorities took to overcome the problem.
