Description:

It is well known that political, economic, and social power in the British Isles in the Middle Ages lay in the hands of a small group of lords. In this book, Rees Davies explores the personalities of these magnates, the nature of their lordship, and the ways in which it was expressed in a diverse and divided region in this period.
