The book traces Fulk's life from his birth into a powerful family, through his rebellious youth and eventual outlawry, to his eventual redemption and return to favor with the king. Along the way, the book explores the political and social context of medieval England, including the conflict between the king and the barons, the role of the church, and the lives of the common people. Drawing on a variety of historical sources, including chronicles, legal documents, and literary works, Kemp-Welch paints a vivid picture of Fulk's world and the challenges he faced. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in medieval history, English society, or the lives of extraordinary individuals who defied the odds to make their mark on history.Good sirs, of old have you heard tell how that William the Bastard, the Duke of Normandy, came, with a great host, and folk without number, into England, and there conquered by force all the land, and slew the King Harold, and caused himself to be crowned at London, and established peace and laws as it pleased him, and bestowed lands on divers folk who came with him. At that time Owen Gwynned was Prince of Wales, and he was a valiant and dexterous warrior, and the King feared him more than all beside.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
