This 1991 publication contains the first printed edition of a short
continuation of the Anglo-Norman prose Brut found in the Anonimalle
Chronicle. This fourteenth-century chronicle of British history was
written at St Mary's Abbey, York, which was a prominent religious
centre at the time. Notable for being the most complete example of
the text to be found, the continuation here is a valuable source
for the wars and political crises of the reign of Edward II and the
early reign of Edward III. The manuscript, its contents and value
are all discussed in a thorough introduction, while the text is
presented with a facing-page translation into English. The work was
edited by Wendy Childs, Emeritus Professor of Later Medieval
History at Leeds, and John Taylor (1925 2009), former Reader in
Medieval History at Leeds.
