Synopsis:

This book is a collection of medieval charters that govern the history of Sheffield and are valuable material for social historians. The book records the daily life and occurrences of the people of Sheffield and provides a rare look into the taxes, fines, and other sources of income that supported the town. The author has provided extensive commentary to elucidate Furnival's Charter, the legal document that granted Sheffield its rights and privileges. This volume is a significant addition to the social history of England and particularly the history of Yorkshire and will be of interest to anyone wanting to understand the history and development of the town of Sheffield.
