FURBER, ELIZABETH CHAPIN.
Essex Sessions of the Peace 1351, 1377-1379. (Essex Archaeological Society, Occasional Publications No.3).
Colchester: Wiles & Son Ltd, for the Essex Archaeological Society, 1953. "The years of the Essex sessions of the peace (1351 and 1377-79) fall between two important landmarks of the fourteenth century, the Black Death of 1349 and the Great Revolt of 1381. The last half of the fourteenth century constituted a period of far-reaching social and economic change and discontent. The old manorial system was breaking up;new forces were at work to transform the position of the agricultural labourer, and to quicken the industrial and commercial life of England."
