The latest volume for Oxfordshire is devoted to eight parishes between the market towns of Burford and Witney in the west of the county.

The area is predominantly rural, the only urban centre being Carterton.

Founded in 1900 as a colony of smallholders, it became one of the county's fastest growing towns after World War II due to its proximity to Brize Norton's military airbase. "Oxfordshire: Volume XV" is a richly detailed history of these parishes, covering everything from Anglo-Saxon settlement to 20th-century urbanisation, agriculture to rural industry, religious influences to famous residents.
