The History of English Affairs, covering the years 1066-1198, was
written at the close of the twelfth century and has been described
as being "both in substance and in form ... the finest historical
work left to us by an Englishman of the twelfth century" (The
Dictionary of National Biography). The author's critical ability,
gifts of acute observation, clear judgment and tolerant
impartiality justify his high reputation as an original authority,
Book Two covers the years 1136-1198, and incorporates the murder of
Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral, the capture of the King of
Scots at Alnwick, and the first subjugation of Ireland by the
English. It also documents the career of Nicholas Breakspear, the
only Englishman to become Pope. Dual language: Latin -- English.
