This collection represents the surviving output of the clerks of
the men and women of the most powerful magnate dynasty in England,
Wales and Ireland in the thirteenth century. Its greatness was
short-lived, but as a result of the Marshals' spread of interests
and marriage alliances the charters and letters edited here embrace
a remarkable diversity of lordships and societies. That fact and
the central place the two Earls William Marshal held at the court
of the young Henry III between 1216 and 1231, playing a decisive
role in the establishment of Magna Carta, give this collection a
unique interest for medieval historians of Britain and France, more
so perhaps than for any other contemporary magnate family.
