Between 1863 and 1876, the Rolls Series published several works
from or about the abbey of St Albans, edited by Henry Thomas Riley
(1816-78) under the rubric 'Chronica monasterii S. Albani'. This
two-volume edition of the 'History of England' by Thomas Walsingham
(c.1340-c.1422), who supervised the scriptorium at St Albans until
1394, appeared in 1863-4. Riley followed a fifteenth-century
manuscript, Arundel M.S. VII, but the appendix to Volume 2 supplies
additional material from an earlier manuscript, Brit. Mus. Reg. 13.
E. IX. Modern scholars argue that this work, with several others
previously published separately, belongs to a larger Chronica
majora overseen by Walsingham, and that its complicated manuscript
tradition reveals Thomas' changing opinions of Richard II and John
of Gaunt. For over a century Riley's edition was acknowledged as
authoritative for the central period 1377-92. The text appears in
Latin, with English side-notes.

Between 1863 and 1876, the Rolls Series published several works
about the abbey of St Albans, edited by Henry Thomas Riley
(1816-78) under the rubric Chronica monasterii S. Albani. This
account of the achievements of its abbots was compiled and enlarged
by Thomas Walsingham (c.1340-c.1422), who supervised the
scriptorium at St Albans until 1394, and wrote several other
historical works. It appeared in three volumes between 1867 and
1869. The early part of the Gesta reworks earlier accounts,
including that by Matthew Paris (d.1259), but the section covering
1308-93 was composed by Walsingham himself and is an important
primary source for fourteenth-century English history. Volume 1
covers the period from the foundation of the abbey by King Offa in
793 to 1290. The Latin text (with English side-notes) includes
references to the aftermath of the Norman Conquest and to the
Fourth Lateran Council.

covering 1290-1349, records events that include a fire in the
abbot's chamber and a visit to the papal court. The main text is in
Latin, with English side-notes, but a rule for nuns appears in
Anglo-Norman.

covers Thomas's own lifetime, from 1349 onwards, and includes an
anonymous continuation to 1411. The main text is in Latin, with
English side-notes. There are several passages in Anglo-Norman, for
which a full English translation is provided.

of them by Thomas Walsingham (c.1340-c.1422), who supervised the
scriptorium at St Albans until 1394 and wrote in Latin on subjects
including history, classics and music. This edition of Thomas' last
historical work appeared in 1876. A digest of mainly English
history from the ninth century to 1419, it contains a dedication to
Henry V that emphasises his dynasty's Norman origins and his recent
reconquest of Normandy, the 'Neustria' of the title. It contains
records of sea and land battles, conspiracies and heresies, weather
events and comets, and fascinating details including the appearance
of a dolphin in the Thames in 1392 and a state visit to England by
the Emperor of Constantinople.
