The Camden volumes, published by the Royal Historical Society, offer collections of skilfully edited primary source material for historians. The Camden Miscellany collections contain a variety of shorter documents and papers. This volume comprises seventeenth-century documents on parliamentary and financial matters. These include the parliamentary papers of Nicholas Ferrar (1624), the letters of Sir Cheney Culpeper (1641–57) and the assessment lists for the Cromwellian decimation tax of 1655.
