Phillips in The English Historical Review,[4] by Richard W. Kaeuper in Speculum,[5] and by Robert Bartlett in the Journal of British Studies.[6]

His second book, England in the Reign of Edward III, published in 1991, was reviewed by Professor Ruth Mazo Karras of the University of Minnesota in Albion,[7] by Anthony Goodman in History,[8] by Ian Dawson in Teaching History,[9] by James W. Alexander in Speculum,[10] by Professor Stephen H. Rigby of the University of Manchester in The Economic History Review,[11] by Professor Robert C.

With Peter D. Diehl, Waugh co-edited Christendom and Its Discontents: Exclusion, Persecution, and Rebellion, 1000-1500 in 1996. The book was reviewed by Professor Glenn W.
