Crime and Community in Reformation Scotland

Reviews / Votes

'This book will surely be welcomed for the many vignettes that it offers of sixteenth-century social life, the fruit of detailed archival research.' International Review of Scottish Studies 'This fine book will change the way scholars think about governance and neighbourliness in early modern Scotland. It should be required reading for all scholars and students interested in the social order of early modern Britain.' Steve Hindle, The Huntington Library 'through its close examination of archival records resulting from Aberdonian wrongdoing, it should make it harder for Scottish historians to forget that there is no such thing as a meaningless crime.' English Historical Review
