"[T]his is going to be both a compelling addition to the current literature on this experiment in late-medieval English taxation and an indispensable reference work for historians working in a wide range of topics, to be put side by side with the British Academy series' earlier edition of the early-fourteenth-century lay subsidy returns....It is a very impressive accomplishment."--The Medieval Review

"...Fenwick's meticulous editing makes a wealth of local information available not only to historians who seek to assess the role of the poll taxes in the background of the Great Revolt, but also to scholars interested in a variety of economic and demographic questions in post-plague England...[A] thorough and reliable compilation of the thousands of local tax returns that frame an importank part of the background of the Great Revolt of 1381."--Albion
