About the author
Born in 1848 and dying in 1925, Reginald Robinson Sharpe was a British barrister and historian. The most consistently confirmed descriptions of his work identify him with historical writing and editorial work based on the archives of the City of London, especially records kept at Guildhall.
His best-known book is London and the Kingdom, a multi-volume history drawn mainly from those archives. Library and public-domain catalog records also connect him with editions of sources such as letter-books, coroners' rolls, and wills, showing that much of his contribution was not only writing history but also making original records more accessible to other readers and researchers.
