Reviews

'These are efficient and scholarly essays, packed with interesting detail, with important implications for national history as well as for the corporate history of the great Abbey from the Reformation to the Civil War.' Christopher Haigh, University of Oxford '... this is a collection of outstanding essays based on careful and exhaustive research in the abbey's muniments, or archives... Ashgate has published some of the best monographs on early modern British religious history. Westminster Abbey Reformed: 1540-1640 will further cement this reputation for excellence, and will be a welcome addition to the library of anyone who values top-notch scholarship.' Anglican and Episcopal History 'As might be expected, the standard of editing and presentation throughout the volume reaches the highest standards. Despite its rather specialist appeal, it shoud be emphasized that many of the essays it contains throw very useful sidelights on many aspects of the broader religious history of the sixteenth and seventeeth centuries, and it is therefore a volume that no serious student of the religious history of this period can afford to overlook.' Albion
