Edward I s conquest of Wales was a key formative event in the history of Britain but it has not been the subject of a scholarly book for over 100 years Research has advanced since then changing our perception of the medieval military mind & shining fresh light on the key characters involved in the conquest That is why Sean Davies s absorbing new study is so timely & important He takes a balanced approach giving both the Welsh & English perspectives on the war & on the brutal mistrustful & ruthless personal motives that drove events His account is set in the context of Welsh warfare & society from the end of Rome to the time of Edward s opening campaign in the late thirteenth century The narrative describes in vivid detail the military history of the conflict the sequence of campaigns Welsh resistance Edward s castle building & English colonization & the cost of the struggle to the Welsh & the English & the uneasy peace that followed ...

He is one of the most reviled English kings in history He drove his kingdom to the brink of civil war a dozen times in less than twenty years He allowed his male lovers to rule the kingdom He led a great army to the most ignominious military defeat in English history His wife took a lover & invaded his kingdom & he ended his reign wandering around Wales with a handful of followers pursued by an army He was the first king of England forced to abdicate his throne Popular legend has it that he died screaming impaled on a red-hot poker but in fact the time & place of his death are shrouded in mystery His life reads like an Elizabethan tragedy full of passionate doomed love bloody revenge jealousy hatred vindictiveness & obsession He was Edward II & this book tells his story Using almost exclusively fourteenth-century sources & Edward's own letters & speeches wherever possible Kathryn Warner strips away the myths which have been created about him over the centuries & provides a far more accurate & vivid picture of him than has previously been seen ...

Edward II is one of the most controversial kings of English history On numerous occasions he brought England to the brink of civil war Author Stephen Spinks argues that Edward & the later murdered Piers Gaveston were lovers not merely brothers-in-arms' Influenced by successive royal favourites & with a desire for personal vengeance his rule became highly polarised & unstable His own wife took a lover & invaded his kingdom resulting in his forced abdication; the first in British history Edward's prevailing legacy remains the warning that all kings can fall from power & yet war debt & baronial oppression before 1307 ensured that Edward II inherited a toxic legacy that any successor would have found almost impossible to wrestle with Stephen Spinks explores that legacy using contemporary & later sources By focusing on Edward's early years as much as on his reign & exploring the conflicting influences of those around him Stephen shows the human side of this tale against a backdrop of political intrigues & betrayals He peels back the layers to reveal the man who wore the crown Edward's belief in his unchallengable right to rule increasingly at odds with those at his court & his undeniable thirst for revenge creates a fourteenth-century tragedy on a grand scale ...
