Reviews
'Church Building and Society in the Later Middle Ages is an engaging and significant study that sets church building - its administration and its financing - in later medieval England within the broader context of the changing economy and society of the period.' Phillipp R. Schofield, The American Historical Review
'This book is an excellent addition to the large corpus of material on the late medieval parish. It provides a holistic insight into the economic, social, and political complexities of parish church building.' Judy Bailey, Parergon
