Sir Francis Hill's volumes on the history of the City of Lincoln
are a historical monument for which it is not easy to think of a
parallel. Written by a distinguished (and very busy) public man,
they are works of patient scholarship. They give a survey of the
growth and development of one of England's ancient boroughs: a
county town, a cathedral city, and a centre of trade and industry.
Medieval Lincoln, first published in 1948 and now reprinted, is
recognized as a model of what local history should be. It is based
on primary sources, it is local without being parochial, and uses a
close study as a key to medieval history as a whole. The plan is
mainly chronological; Lincoln is studied from Roman times to the
fifteenth century. There are also chapters on certain topics of
particular local interest: the minster, the castle and the bail,
parish churches and religious houses, the Jews, the Mayor and
Commonalty, communications and trade, and fields and pastures.
There are seven Appendices; twenty-two plates; and the figures
include useful detailed maps.
