Following a request for justice from Arthur's sister Eleanor, Philip assembled the court of peers of the realm, an assembly of the most powerful nobles and churchmen, to determine John's culpability. The author delves into the political and legal machinations surrounding the trial, exploring the complex dynamics between the monarchy and its feudal vassals. The book sheds light on the uncertain nature of justice during this tumultuous period, and the challenges faced by those seeking to enforce the law against powerful individuals. Ultimately, this work provides a valuable contribution to our understanding of feudal law and the intricate interplay between power and justice in the Middle Ages.
