The author then adopts a broad-based geographic lens to examineprovincial credit before focusing on London's development as the commercial powerhousein late medieval business.
Academics and students of modern economic change and historicfinancial revolutions alike will see that the years from 1353 to1532 encompassed immense upheaval and change, reminiscent of modern recessions.The author carefully guides the reader to see that these shifts are theprecursors of economic change in the early modern period, laying thefoundations for the financial world as we know it today.
