T. F. Tout’s History of England covers the eventful period from the accession of Henry III in 1216 to the death of Edward III in 1377. One of the great medievalists of his age, Tout charts the growth of Parliament, the baronial struggles, the conquest of Wales, the wars with Scotland, and the opening of the Hundred Years’ War.
Part of a respected series of national histories, the work reflects Tout’s mastery of administrative and constitutional development as England moved toward a more defined system of government. The reigns of Henry III, Edward I, and Edward III mark crucial steps in the making of the realm. Students of medieval England and its institutions will find it indispensable. This free EPUB edition revives a classic scholarly survey of thirteenth- and fourteenth-century England.
