This is a study of one of the most notable monarchs and greatest reigns of the English Middle Ages, during which Wales was conquered and Scotland brought close to subjugation, the legal and administrative systems were overhauled and Parliament came to occupy a new position in the realm. Professor Prestwich re-examines Edward and his reign in the light of the considerable quantity of surviving evidence, much of it still unprinted, to provide not only the life story of a remarkable king but also an analysis of a complex and significant era. This book will be of value and interest to scholars and general readers alike. Michael Prestwich is author of "war, politics and finance under Edward I" and "The Three Edwards: war and state in England 1272-1377".

From the Back Cover:
Michael Prestwich's study of Edward I, first published in 1988 and now reissued with a new introduction and updated bibliographic guide, is the definitive full-length account of one of the leading monarchs of the Middle Ages. A king who pioneered legal and parliamentary change, conquered Wales and came close to conquering Scotland, Edward I presents many contradictions. A pious man who built his reputation during the greatest chivalric adventure of the time, the Crusade, he quarrelled with his archbishops. A major player in European diplomacy and war, he acted as peacemaker during the 1280s but became involved in a bitter war with Philip IV a decade later.
About the Author:
Michael Prestwich is Pro-Vice-Chancellor and Professor of History at the University of Durham. He is the author of Armies and Warfare in the Middle Ages (1996), also published by Yale University Press.
