The authors consider both the function of documentation in the process of marrying and what the surviving documents say about pre-modern marriage.Reynolds, Philip L. is the author of 'To Have And to Hold Marrying And Its Documentation in Western Christendom, 400-1600', published 2007 under ISBN 9780521867368 and ISBN 0521867363.
