A Distant Mirror_ The Calamitous 14th Century - Barbara W. Tuchman [411]
On the Peasants’ Revolt in England, so much has been written that it is hardly necessary to cite references except, for convenience, McKisack, Trevelyan, Keen’s “Robin Hood,” and a good account in Collis. The chief primary sources are Anonimalle, Malverne’s continuation of Polychronicon, and Froissart.
For Ghent, Hutton should be added to the sources mentioned above on the working class, and Froissart.

Chapter 19—The Lure of Italy
The chief contemporary sources for Anjou’s campaign for Naples are Chron. C6, vol. I, and the Journal of Jean le Fèvre. The fullest secondary account is in Valois, vol. II. Additional material from Valeri, 230–31, and on Amadeus of Savoy from Cox, 330–37.
Coucy’s campaign in Italy is fully documented in Durrieu’s “Prise d’Arezzo” (Bibliog. I, B) using the Documenti degli Archivi Toscani … Comune di Firenze, published 1866, and other Italian sources. Lacaille’s thèse adds material on the proceedings of the Florentine Signoria taken from the Chronicle of Naddo da Montecatini, in Delizie degli eruditi Toscani, vol. XVIII, Firenze, 1784. The Chron. de Berne, reprinted in KL, XI, 442–43, and Jean le Fèvre are further sources. As part of Anjou’s venture, Coucy’s campaign is covered also in Valois, II.
