The Reign of Edward III by W Mark Ormrod
This book provides not only a detailed study of the reign of Edward III but also a reassessment of his domestic achievements. By considering the history of the reign not in chronological or institutional terms but through Edward's relations with each section of the active political elite, Ormrod reveals Edward III as the prototype of a successful medieval king, rebuilding and enhancing the authority of the throne through the longest period of domestic peace in the Middle Ages.
W.M. ORMROD was born in South Wales and studied at King's College, London and Worcester College, Oxford. He was Lecturer in History at the Universities of Sheffield and Belfast, and Research Fellow at St Catharine's College, Cambridge, and is now Lecturer in History at the University of York. He has written widely on later medieval English history, and is author of The Reign of Edward III.
