This is an important collection of pioneering essays penned by the
late Simon Walker, a highly respected historian of late medieval
England. One of the finest scholars of his generation, Walker's
writing is lucid, inspirational, and has permanently enriched our
understanding of the period. The eleven essays featured here
examine themes such as kingship, lordship, warfare and sanctity.
There are specific studies on subjects such as the changing
fortunes of the family of Sir Richard Abberbury; Yorkshire's
Justices of the Peace; the service of medieval man-at-arms, Janico
Dartasso; Richard II's views on kingship, political saints, and an
investigation of rumour, sedition and popular protest in the reign
of Henry IV. An introduction by G.L. Harriss looks back across
Walker's career, and discusses the historiographical context of his
work. Both the new and previously published pieces here will be
essential reading for those working on the late medieval period. --
