"The editors have done an exemplary job of knitting this volume together into a cohesive, readable and fluent landmark of scholarship for this field." -- Patrick Gleeson, Agricultural History Review

"Overall this collection represents an enormous editing project, which will serve as a very useful resource." -- Deirdre O'Sullivan, Archaeological Journal

"This is a very fine book, equally valuable to experts as to undergraduates. It will immediately establish itself as a key reference work" -- Paul Stamper, Medieval Archaeology
