Reviews
Like all volumes of the VCH, Howdenshire, has an excellent set of footnotes, which allow for further research. * EAST YORKSHIRE LOCAL HISTORY SOCIETY *
For anyone with an interest in Howdenshires history - especially in the medieval, Tudor and Stuart periods - a personal copy would be a sound investment. * HOWDEN CIVIC SOCIETY *
What it does, the VCH does superbly, and this volume is a triumphant demonstration of its effectiveness. It opens up a little-known and unexpectedly strange corner of England to wider audiences both general and academic. * NORTHERN HISTORY *
The clear structure and appreciation of every dyke and farmstead makes the Victoria County History a pleasure to read, full of scholarship and with stories to find. * Vernacular Architecture *
