This book is a study of two important and related pieces of
thirteenth-century English legislation - the Provisions of
Westminster of 1259 and the Statute of Marlborough of 1267 - and is
the first on any of the statutes of this period of major
legislative change. The Provisions of Westminster were the first
major legislation enacted in England after Magna Carta, when Henry
III surrendered control of government to a baronial council with an
agenda of institutional reform. The Provisions were revised and
reissued by the king in 1263, and a further revision in 1267
produced the Statute of Marlborough. Exceptionally good surviving
documentation is used to follow the evolution of the individual
clauses from initial suggestions for reform, through a series of
drafts, to the various versions of the final texts.
