Barnard edited a book entitled Companion to English History. It was on the basis of this useful volume that in 1924 the late Professor H. W. C. Davis edited and revised for the Clarendon Press Medieval England to form part of the series of which Shakespeare's England is probably the best known. After more than half a century the original book, and indeed Davis's revised edition, have become quite out of date.
