Please stop referring to the Great Revolt of 1381 as the Peasants’ Revolt (Report, 12 November). The majority of those who took part in the highly coordinated operation weren’t peasants, and they wielded swords, not pitchforks. Juliet Barker’s brilliant book England, Arise sets the record straight. Whose side is the Guardian on?
