The rich documentation of London records allows these women to speak for themselves. They do so largely through their wills, which themselves exemplify the ability of widows to make choices and to order their lives."--Bloomsbury Publishing.WidowsEnglandLondonHistoryTo 1500General & world historyLondon (England)Social life and customsTo 1500Electronic books.WidowsHistory305.48/9654Barron Caroline M.Sutton Anne F.UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910453861203321Medieval London widows, 1300-15002246767UNINA
