Synopsis :

"Impressive... the cumulative effect [of these papers] is very great indeed." JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY. This study of Anglo-Norman Durham's history, architecture, art, and religious and literary culture covers much ground, including the Cathedral Priory and its relationship to monastic reform; the careers of the prince bishops; studies of the spectacular castle; the relationship between Durham and the Scottish kings; the architecture of the cathedral; and Durham manuscripts and texts, featuring historical compilations and the remarkable Old English poem 'De situ Dunelmi'.

His research into the political role of the Comyns in Scotland in the thirteenth century has continued to fascinate him for forty years. He has written biographies of William Wallace and Robert Bruce and, from this wider perspective on 'patriot heroes' in Scottish history, has returned, in this book, to evaluate the Comyn family in the Scottish independence movement. He is a freelance writer and lecturer.

He has continued to work in this field, publishing numerous articles on aspects of medieval criminality, and editions, alone or in collaboration, of three crown pleas rolls, for Devon in 1238, Wiltshire in 1268 and Lancashire in 1292.
