The foremost English historian of the twelfth century, William of Malmesbury wrote an influential account of the "Deeds of the English Kings". Spanning events from 449 to 1127, it is now considered one of the great histories of English literature. Revered for his thorough research, use of sources and engaging prose style, William was a strong Latin stylist, influenced by the groundbreaking work of the Venerable Bede. His chronicle is regarded as an authority of considerable value from 1066 onwards, offering a rare window into the life and thoughts of twelfth century Norman Britain. Delphi's Medieval Library provides eReaders with rare and precious works of the Middle Ages, with noted English translations and the original texts. This eBook presents William's collected works, with illustrations, a concise introduction and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
