Plague, Population and the English Economy, 1348-1530
Hatcher, John. Plague, Population and the English Economy, 1348-1530. London: Macmillan, 1977.
Why this matters here
Hatcher studies the Black Death's demographic and economic effects in England. The chapter cites that scholarship to contextualize post-plague labor pressure rather than attributing every later labor statute to one cause.
