Reviews

Providing a fascinating glimpse into the lives of medieval women, those researching the society of medieval Lincolnshire, as well as those exploring women's history, will find this study valuable.
*THE LOCAL HISTORIAN*

[A]n accessible and valuable addition to the growing corpus of studies on medieval Englishwomen. Indeed, this wide-ranging volume cries out for similar, comparative works on other counties of thirteenth-century England; I wonder whether a series ought to be founded on Wilkinson's model.
