rofessor Harrison had a brilliant idea: to compile a
chronological record of London gossip, diary entries, local news, and
rumors. The result is splendid - we are used to reading about the doings of
the great in a historical perspective, and it is wonderful to read about
both the mighty and the lowly as contemporary people would have. Very highly
recommended. For the years 1595-1598
