Ultimately [...] this is a comprehensive book written with great skill, care and attention. It will be of interest to specialist and lay readers alike, but will be particularly welcomed by students of late medieval religious culture and the Reformation, both undergraduate and postgraduate, who have lacked a comparable volume of this scope and accessibility. * David Harry, The Ricardian * an excellent, broad survey of the critical roles of abbots and priors in monastic houses during this era of profound change ... Highly recommended. * CHOICE * Martin Heale has written an excellent book. * Virginia Bainbridge, Sehepunkte * The Abbots and Priors of Late Medieval and Reformation England is to be much admired for its broad scope, deep learning, and provocative conclusions. It will inevitably, and deservedly, become the standard work on this subject. * Dr Katherine Harvey, Reviews in History *

The Abbots and Priors of Late Medieval and Reformation England is to be much admired for its broad scope, deep learning, and provocative conclusions. It will inevitably, and deservedly, become the standard work on this subject. Dr Katherine Harvey, Reviews in History
