Official synopsis Publisher
“In tracing the establishment of a strong monarchy after the breakdown of central authority during the closing middle ages and the eventual eclipse of this monarchy by the social and political groups which had come to dominate Parliament, the author has maintained a careful balance of narrative and explaination. Due consideration is given to the economic, religious and other changes which produced the constitutional development, and to the expansion of England into a great trading, and eventually imperial, power with world-wide interests.”…from the DJ flap
