Ruling England, now in its second edition, is a key text for students wishing to understand medieval kingship in England. Beginning just before the Norman Conquest, and ending with the ratification of Magna Carta, Richard Huscroft considers the reign of each English King during the Anglo-Saxon, Anglo-Norman and Angevin periods, including their relationships with the nobility, local government, the courts and the church. This new edition has been fully revised and updated to take into account the latest scholarship and to incorporate new historical fields such as Queenship. This book will be essential reading for students of English Medieval history.
