This second volume covers the impact of the Black Death to the urban crises at the end of the medieval era. The survival of fuller, richer and more varied records allows David Nicholas to get close to the splendours and squalors of everyday life in the cities of the time. He discusses urban government and social structure as they evolved in the wake of plagues, famines, trade disruptions and warfare. The book concludes with separate chapters on urban women, children and religious minorities, education and culture. The result is a vibrant portrait of the tenor of life in the late medieval city.
