The Annals of Dunstable Priory are a major and accurate source for
the Barons' War of Henry III's reign, including material from
official documents, The Annals of Dunstable Priory are a valuable
witness to thirteenth-century England. They record much of
interest, from the day-to-day concerns of the Augustinian house
that produced the text to the events of the Ninth Crusade. They
commenced under the direction of the well-connected Prior Richard
de Morins, who, amongst other important events of his age, attended
the Fourth Lateran Council in 1215, studied at the University of
Paris, and undertookdiplomatic missions for King John. Giving
insights into many facets of medieval life, they perhaps most
importantly offer detailed accounts of key events on an national
and international stage, including the crisis of the Second Barons'
War in the reign of Henry III, and the conquest of Wales under
Edward I. Told with humour, outrage, and truthful detail, the
Annals offer a lively and accessible account of an important and
turbulent period of English history. This new translation makes
them available to a wider audience for the first time. The Chronica
Maiora of Thomas Walsingham, a Choice Outstanding Academic Title.
