This is the first full account of the evolution of the government
of London from the tempestuous days of the Commune in the late
twelfth century to the calmer waters of Tudor England. Caroline
Barron shows how the elected rulers of London developed ways of
dealing with both demanding monarchs and quarrelsome city
inhabitants. The remarkable survival of the city's own records
makes it possible to trace, in unexpected detail, the inner
workings of civic politics and government over three hundred years.
London was by far the most populous and wealthy city in the
kingdom, and its practices were widely copied throughout England.
It was, as the Londoners claimed in 1339, the 'mirror and example
to the whole land'.
