Reviews for Medieval Trade in the Mediterranean World
"Because of its extensive notes and commentary, Medieval Trade in the Mediterranean World continues to be useful to scholars. Its principal value, however, is as a teaching text: as one of the few that concentrates on documentary rather than narrative records."
Adam J. Costo, Columbia University
