Opis

This is the second volume of the first major scholarly edition of this chronicle, one of the most important sources of early English history. Volume III will cover 1067 to 1140, and Volume I, the last to be published, will have a general introduction and supplementary material.

Recenzje

In completing a work which was left unfinished by R. R. Darlington on his death in 1977, Dr McGurk has produced the first comprehensive scholarly edition of the text. A detailed analysis of all aspects of the compilation of this highly anglocentric piece of world history will appear in Volume I, whose publication will complete this valuable enterprise.
