In his first adventure alone after his father's death, young William Walkingstick has stumbled upon a new world-a world of bitties and hat towns, giants and faeries, woodsmen and enchanted forests. His first acquaintance in this new land is a friendly giant named Eril, who wears a most amazing hat. Upon Eril's hat sits an elegant miniature town with little houses and shops, cobblestone streets, and lampposts shining with pinpricks of light. William is smitten with the tiny folk who live there, the bitties, and dreams of someday earning his very own hat town. But adventure comes William's way when the hat towns are stolen by Egad the Terrible, and he finds himself caught up in a heart-stopping rescue mission. Drawing from the quiet strength of a gentle giant, inspired by the unassuming and sometimes rib-tickling spunk of a lion-hearted bittie, and urged on by the determined faith of a wayward faerie, William learns the meaning of true bravery and realizes he has possessed it all along.
Aspects of the reign of King Henry re-examined, from royal biography to administrative history. It is a testament to C. Warren Hollister's ongoing influence that the reign of Henry I, until his work on the period relatively neglected, is now a vibrant field of inquiry - to which this collection, a special volume of the Haskins Society Journal dedicated to his memory, makes a significant contribution. Its distinguished contributors, many former Hollister students, cover a wide range of areas: royal biography; political history, including Church-Staterelations and relations with neighbors such as Maine and Ireland as well as the English people Henry ruled; administrative history, including fiscal management; and prosopography, especially of the major developments in the Anglo-Norman aristocracy under Henry's reign. This volume thus continues and extends Hollister's scholarly legacy. Contributors: ROBERT S. BABCOCK, RICHARD E. BARTON, STEPHANIE MOOERS CHRISTELOW, DAVID CROUCH, RAGENA C. DE ARAGON, LOIS L. HUNEYCUTT, DAVID S. SPEAR, HEATHER J. TANNER, KATHLEEN THOMPSON, ANN WILLIAMS, SALLY N. VAUGHN.
