Reviews for The Golden Age of Arbitration: Dispute Resolution Under Elizabeth I
'Roebuck's method is an engaging series of polymathic raids into the territory of geographers, ethnographers, linguists, lawyers, historians and archaeologists.' (Sir Stephen Sedley London Review of Books) 'The journey through this history is vividly painted... inspiring and engaging... a thorough yet interesting insight into the development of dispute resolution.'
