Description

Book Synopsis
Written by a forensic historian, this volume describes the reception and application of inquisition in England from the thirteenth century onwards and analyses all levels of trial proceedings, both minor and major, from accusations of sexual offenses and cheating on tithes to matters of religious dissent.

Trade Review
The sheer breadth of coverage is intriguing, the technicalities of canonistic procedure are worthy of serious attention, and the evidence employed is extensive. I know of no recent study which would compete, especially with its depth of coverage. This is a significant contribution."" - Thomas Izbicki, Librarian emeritus, Rutgers University
