"This volume makes a great addition to a number of recent publications dedicated to the history of the Franciscan order. [...] The quality of this volume [...] would surely have pleased the man it aims to honour [historian John Moorman (d. 1989)], as would the continued interest in the order to which he dedicated his life's work."
- Anne-Julie Lafaye, Journal of Medieval Monastic Studies (2020)

"This collection undeniably displays historical rigour and a wealth of source material, with its in-depth investigation into the realities of individual friars and friaries. [...] The depth and rigour of its individual analyses make this collection a useful addition to the bookshelves of any scholar of the medieval Church, and of the Franciscans in particular."

"Anyone looking for an insight into the world of the Franciscans in England until the beginning of the Reformation will find in this book a comprehensive and valuable overview." - Paul Zahner, sehepunkte.de, 2019 (translated from the German)
