Opis: The Second Norman Conquest of England (Classic Reprint) - Cheney Charles Edward

Excerpt from The Second Norman Conquest of England

The following sketch had its birth in the mind of the writer through his accidental possession of a copy of L'Histoire des Ducs de Normandie et des Rois d'Angleterre - an anonymous chronicle in ancient French, which is supposed by competent authorities to have been written in the first quarter of the thirteenth century. By so distinguished an historian as Petit-Dutaillis (whose Life of Louis VIII. of France has been of invaluable aid in the preparation of this essay), L'Histoire des Ducs de Normandie et des Rois d'Angleterre is believed to be the work of an eye-witness of the scenes and events related. Careful study has been given in the preparation of this paper to the works of such chroniclers as Matthew Paris, Matthew of Westminster, Walter of Coventry, and especially Roger of Wendover.
