Trade Review
"A very useful contribution."--Choice, July 2001
"D. M. Hadley has written a judicious and provocative study of the evolving social, tenurial, administrative, and ecclesiastical organization of the northern Danelaw...a flawed but important book...The approach is truly interdisciplinary...the positions she advances are persuasive....Hadley...is to be congratulated. The Northern Danelaw is a book that Anglo-Saxon historians and early medievalists in general cannot afford to ignore." --Speculum, 10/02
