A second domesday? [Elektronisk resurs] the hundred rolls of 1279-80 / Sandra Raban.

• The 1279-80 hundred rolls are one of the most important but neglected sources for 13th-century English history. This book places the inquiry in its historical context among other inquiries by Edward I in England, Gascony, the Channel Islands, and Wales, and by other rulers on the Continent. It examines its purpose and whether it was conceived deliberately as a second Domesday Book. The geographical range and chronology of the inquiry are examined, how it was conducted and the way in which the returns were compiled. The book concludes with an assessment of the uses which contemporaries and modern historians have made of the returns. There are appendices providing lists of the manuscripts and printed editions of all known surviving rolls, the commission of inquiry and oath taken by commissioners and the articles of inquiry for Cambridgeshire and London.
