David Abulafia, Cambridge University, UK
'The volume displays once more the broad range of Abulafia's research, his comparative approach, and his important contribution to a comprehensive view of the evolution of the medieval Mediterranean region.' Mediterranean Historical Review '... a successful attempt to show the commercial importance of western Mediterranean at the end of the Middle Ages... Precise references to other writers through detailed notes, a careful study of written sources like juridical documents or commercial contracts, the different use of official witness and private papers confirm the value of this volume...'
