"Thomas Frederick Tout (1855-1929) was arguably the most prolific English medieval
historian of the early twentieth century. The son of an unsuccessful publican, he
was described at his Oxford scholarship exam as 'uncouth and untidy'; however he went
on to publish hundreds of books throughout his distinguished career with a legacy
that extended well beyond the academy. Tout pioneered the use of archival research,
welcomed women into academia and augmented the University of Manchester's growing
reputation for pioneering research. This book presents the first full assessment of
Tout's life and work, from his early career at Lampeter, to his work in Manchester
and his wide-ranging service to the study of history. Selected essays take a fresh
and critical look at Tout's own historical writing and discuss how his research shaped,
and continues to shape, our understanding of the middle ages, particularly the fourteenth
century. The book concludes with a personal reflection on Tout by his grandson, Tom
Sharp."
