It might have been completed earlier with a more bullying editor, or one not regularly overwhelmed by the demands of teaching and administration in the modern British university system (almost immediately after the volume was initiated, I was made Head of Department and Chair of the History Board at Birmingham, with predictably adverse consequences for projects such as this). That the volume has at least appeared is a testimony to perseverence as much as anything else. Running perhaps true to form with such collaborative eﬀorts, aspiration ran ahead of realisation, and delays pushed back the schedule. In the naivete and enthusiasm of 2001, my hope-and intention- was that the volume would appear much earlier than has actually been the case. Originally the idea was that the volume would concentrate on the period after 1350 the time-frame has expanded, with some essays reaching back into the thirteenth century. This volume has managed to remain reasonably close to the idea originally ﬂung at Julian Deahl at the Medieval Congress at Kalamazoo in 2001, but as it came to putting it all together, and to putting together the contributions as they were duly delivered, subtle changes crept in.
