There was a great review in this weekend’s Sunday Times for Juliet Barker’s new book England, Arise: The People, the King and the Great Revolt of 1381.
‘[This] thorough, clear-eyed and intelligent new volume adds much to the field: packed with vivid pen portraits of the rebels and the men they hunted, and with several interesting new arguments about key figures and moments in the rebellion… a vivid and exciting portrait of a country in angry upheaval.’
