Magna Carta, imposed on King John by his barons in 1215, is widely
regarded as the foundation of the British constitution. This is the
classic study of the origins of the rebellion which culminated in
the events at Runnymede. Professor Holt investigates the causes of
the baronial revolt, and explores the social and administrative
setting of the northern shires and their landed families. Professor
Holt's introduction to the paperback edition draws on recent
research on border societies to offer new insights into the
organization of the northern barons. He also provides a valuable
Guide to further reading.
