The December issue includes a new feature. Notices of Records, Texts and Reference Works provides short descriptive accounts of published volumes of edited primary sources, texts, calendars, translations and other works of reference which have been received by the editors, mainly during 2013. These are items which do not always lend themselves to full critical review, but are nonetheless significant scholarly works likely to be of considerable interest to practising historians, students, and other readers of the English Historical Review.
